California State University Los Angeles (Cal State LA) Los Angeles City College, East Los Angeles College, and Pasadena City College have established a very successful collaborative for developing the careers of talented community college science minority students. In the period since last review, 92% of the participating students that completed the program transferred to four-year institutions. We propose continuation of this effort that is making a significant impact on the entry of minority group members into biomedical research careers. We anticipate that at least 80% of the participating community college students will transfer to four-year universities in science majors. This is an ambitious goal as the transfer rate from these community colleges to four-year institutions is some 20% overall. The program we propose for continuation is deliberately designed to: 1) develop student skills in mathematics, basic sciences, and the English language as a foundation to high academic achievement in undergraduate majors in the natural sciences; 2) that students are motivated to careers the biomedical sciences through participation in solid research experiences and interaction with science faculty and other biomedical scientists, and; 3) that students are prepared for the transition from community college students to upper-division undergraduates at universities. Furthermore, we expect that at least 70% of those who transfer to Cal State LA and get further career development through participation in its MBRS-RISE or MARC U*STAR programs will continue to Ph.D. programs on graduation.

加州州立大学洛杉矶（Cal State LA）安赫勒斯城学院， 东洛杉矶学院和帕萨迪纳城市学院已经建立了一个非常 成功的合作，为发展有才华的社区学院的职业生涯 科学少数民族学生。自上次审查以来，92%的参与者 完成该计划的学生转入四年制院校。我们 建议继续这一努力，这对进入产生了重大影响 少数群体成员进入生物医学研究事业。 我们预计至少80%的参与社区大学的学生 将转入四年制大学的理科专业。这是一个雄心勃勃的目标 因为从这些社区学院到四年制大学的转学率是 整体约20%。我们建议继续的计划是故意的， 旨在：1）培养学生在数学，基础科学和 英语作为基础，以高学术成就， 自然科学本科专业; 2）学生有动力 通过参与扎实的研究， 经验和互动与科学教师和其他生物医学科学家， 以及; 3）学生为从社区学院过渡做好准备 从学生到大学高年级本科生。而且我们 预计至少有70%的人谁转移到加州州立大学洛杉矶分校，并得到进一步的 通过参加MBRS-RISE或MARC U* 星星计划，实现职业发展 项目将继续到博士。毕业时的节目。 主要研究者/项目负责人（最后、第一、中间）：Tunstad，琳达
