The long term goal of this project is to formalize a graduate degree curriculum based on cancer medicine, cancer science and cancer health disparities. The main goal is to enhance research capacity at UPRCCC by development of an Education Core that complements and is integral to the Training and Career Development Core. Although UPR offers a wide variety of basic science courses, no specific courses or customized curricula are offered that address topics in cancer medicine, science, and health disparities. The proposed educational curriculum will provide a foundation in these topics that initially will complement education received by the students pursuing careers in science, biomedical sciences, medicine and other health sciences careers who are enrolled in UPR and the collaborating institutions. The Education Core will provide this academic offer by different strategies; short intensive courses, core curricular sequences composed of modules (one module by semester), seminar series and scientific meetings, among others. All of the educational activities offered and coordinated by the Education Core will account to registered, credit granting courses, at UPR. Two short courses have already been developed, originally as part of the Training Program, one on Cancer Biology and one in Cancer Genetics. These take advantage of the availability of expert faculty from the partnering institution, MDACC, along with the expertise and experience of the UPRCCC on the particularities of the Hispanic populations. Based on the successful experience with these intensive short courses, plans are directed towards the creation of additional courses in topics such as. Emerging Technologies in Cancer Medicine, Cancer Prevention and Cancer Health Disparities. Another innovation proposed is a modular curricular core on skills necessary to be successful in research, aimed to offer fundamental knowledge to undergraduate students interested in pursuing careers related to cancer and health disparities. One module will be offered each semester; Responsible Conduct of Research, Enhancing verbal, analytical reading and writing skills. Fundamental Skills for Research & Introduction to Biostatics and Bioinformatics. The intent is that the trainees complete the sequence of modules in two (2) years. Although the Education Core is based on the University of Puerto Rico System, the idea is to develop collaboration with other accredited academic institutions in Puerto Rico, starting with the Ponce School of Medicine. One of the objectives of the Educational Core is to lay the foundation for the development of a formal graduate program at UPR with a curriculum based on cancer medicine, cancer science and cancer health disparities.

该项目的长期目标是正式确定基于癌症的研究生学位课程 医学、癌症科学和癌症健康差异。 主要目标是通过发展一个教育核心， 是培训和职业发展核心的补充和组成部分。尽管普遍定期审议提供了广泛的 各种基础科学课程，没有具体的课程或定制的课程提供，解决主题， 癌症医学、科学和健康差距。拟议的教育课程将提供一个 在这些主题的基础，最初将补充教育所接受的学生追求的职业生涯， 科学，生物医学科学，医学和其他健康科学职业谁参加普遍定期审议和 合作机构。教育核心将通过不同的策略提供这种学术机会;短 强化课程，核心课程序列组成的模块（一个模块每学期），研讨会系列 和科学会议等等。所有的教育活动提供和协调的 教育核心将在普遍定期审议中对注册的、授予学分的课程进行核算。两个短期课程已经 最初作为培训计划的一部分，一个是关于癌症生物学的，一个是关于癌症的 遗传学这些利用了合作机构MDACC的专家教师的可用性， 沿着的专业知识和经验的UPRCCC的特殊性，西班牙裔人口。 根据这些强化短期课程的成功经验，计划旨在建立 其他课程的主题，如。癌症医学、癌症预防和治疗的新兴技术 癌症健康差异。提出的另一项创新是关于必要技能的模块课程核心， 成功的研究，旨在提供基础知识的本科生感兴趣的是 从事与癌症和健康差距有关的职业。每学期提供一个模块; 负责任的研究行为，提高口头，分析阅读和写作能力。基本技能 生物统计学和生物信息学研究与介绍。目的是让受训人员完成 模块序列在两（2）年内。虽然教育核心是基于波多黎各大学 系统，这个想法是发展与其他认可的学术机构在波多黎各的合作，开始 在庞塞医学院工作教育核心的目标之一是奠定基础， 在普遍定期审议的一个正式的研究生课程的发展与基于癌症医学，癌症 科学和癌症健康的差距。
