Abstract 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 ofthe 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 ofthe Training Program, one on Cancer Biology and one in Cancer Genetics. These take advantage ofthe 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.

摘要 该项目的长期目标是正式确定基于癌症医学，癌症科学和癌症健康差异的研究生学位课程。其主要目标是通过发展教育核心来加强该中心的研究能力，该核心是培训和职业发展核心的补充和组成部分。虽然普遍定期审议提供了各种各样的基础科学课程，没有具体的课程或定制的课程提供，解决癌症医学，科学和健康的差距的主题。拟议的教育课程将为这些主题奠定基础，最初将补充在普遍定期审议和合作机构就读的从事科学、生物医学、医学和其他健康科学职业的学生所接受的教育。教育核心将通过不同的策略提供这种学术服务;短期强化课程，由模块组成的核心课程序列（每学期一个模块），研讨会系列和科学会议等。教育核心提供和协调的所有教育活动都将计入UPR注册的学分授予课程。已经开发了两个短期课程，最初作为培训计划的一部分，一个是癌症生物学，一个是癌症遗传学。这些课程利用了合作机构MDACC的专家教师的可用性，沿着了UPRCCC在西班牙裔人口特殊性方面的专业知识和经验。根据这些强化短期课程的成功经验，计划开设更多的课程，例如。癌症医学、癌症预防和癌症健康差异的新兴技术。提出的另一项创新是一个模块化的课程核心，涉及在研究中取得成功所需的技能，旨在为有兴趣从事与癌症和健康差距相关职业的本科生提供基础知识。每学期将提供一个模块;负责任的研究行为，提高口头，分析阅读和写作能力。生物统计学和生物信息学导论。目的是让学员在两（2）年内完成模块序列。虽然教育核心是基于波多黎各系统的大学，其想法是发展与其他认可的学术机构在波多黎各的合作，开始与庞塞医学院。教育核心的目标之一是奠定基础，在普遍定期审议与癌症医学，癌症科学和癌症健康的差距为基础的课程的正式研究生课程的发展。
