Abstract North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University (NC A&T) submits this new ESTEEMED application with the overarching goal to significantly increase the preparation and production of high achieving underrepresented minority students who will pursue careers in Ph.D. programs in bioengineering or STEM fields relevant to Bioengineering. Consequently, the NC A&T ESTEEMED program will employ a persistence framework that combines an academic support system, early research experiences, collaborative learning and intrusive advising to cultivate the science identity of underrepresented minority students. Specific aims for the NC A&T ESTEEMED program are: 1) Increase the number of students who successfully complete pathway courses by the end of the sophomore year; 2) Increase the number of students prepared and committed to conduct research; and 3) Increase the number of students who are prepared for entering Ph.D. level programs in Bioengineering or STEM fields relevant to Bioengineering. Activities that support these aims and expected outcomes include: a Summer Bridge Program; Academic Year Activities that include intrusive advising, academic support, faculty-directed research, seminars; and, summer research experiences. Threaded through the two-year program, the NC A&T ESTEEMED scholars will participate in activities that enhance their STEM knowledge base, oral and written communication skills, and bioengineering/biomedical research skills. The expected outcomes and expectations for this program are that 1) 80% of participants will successfully complete freshman and sophomore level requirements for the major within two years; 2) 100% of participants will meet research development goals; and 3) 80% of ESTEEMED scholars will self-identify as a bioengineer or biomedical scientist.

摘要 北卡罗来纳州农业和技术州立大学（NC A&T）提交了这一新的 ESTEEMED应用程序的总体目标是显着增加准备和 培养出成绩优异、代表性不足、将攻读博士学位的少数族裔学生 生物工程或与生物工程相关的STEM领域的课程。因此，NC A&T ESTEEMED计划将采用一个持久性框架， 支持系统，早期研究经验，协作学习和侵入式咨询， 培养代表性不足的少数族裔学生的科学认同。国家委员会的具体目标 A&T ESTEEMED计划是：1）增加成功完成的学生人数 在大二结束时开设衔接课程; 2）增加准备好的学生人数 并致力于进行研究; 3）增加准备好的学生人数 进入博士学位生物工程或与生物工程相关的STEM领域的高级课程。 支持这些目标和预期成果的活动包括：夏桥方案; 学年活动，包括侵入性咨询，学术支持，教师指导 研究，研讨会;和，夏季研究经验。在这两年里， 该计划，NC A&T被尊重的学者将参加活动，提高他们的干 知识基础，口头和书面沟通技巧，以及生物工程/生物医学研究 skills.该计划的预期成果和期望是：1）80%的参与者 将成功地完成大一和大二水平的要求，主要在两个 2）100%的参与者将达到研究开发目标; 3）80%的受试者将达到研究开发目标。 学者将自我认定为生物工程师或生物医学科学家。
