项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Well-articulated policies and coordinated plans can help two-year colleges play an important role in increasing the proportion of underrepresented students who successfully complete behavioral and biomedical science research focused degrees and go on to successful research careers in their chosen fields. The program described in this proposal will leverage existing partnerships, strategies and resources between the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) and four City Colleges of Chicago (CCC) to improve the transfer pipeline and baccalaureate degree completion of underrepresented students in behavioral and biomedical research focused science careers represented in our College of Nursing, School of Public Health and College of Liberal Arts and Sciences (Biology, Chemistry, Psychology, Physics). The proposed program will also enhance collaborations and professional development opportunities between UIC and CCC faculty that will lead to a more robust educational experience for the participating students. UIC is a public research-intensive university with a diverse undergraduate student body. CCC is a seven- institution community college system serving the city of Chicago. This proposal will build upon the structure of the Guaranteed Admission Transfer (GAT) program - a partnership which offers CCC students the opportunity for guaranteed undergraduate admission to UIC after they complete their first two years at one of the CCC institutions - by providing a variety of support and research focused educational activities to enhance the successful transfer of underrepresented students into one of the three identified behavioral and biomedical science research career paths. By providing enhanced recruitment efforts, placement, training, and mentorship, we can expose students to a "culture of research science" and provide academic support, research experiences, and the creation of cohorts/learning communities to move the transfer students through their undergraduate programs. Furthermore, we propose to track these students through their entire UIC career, and measure the impact of this program on the transfer process, retention, persistence, graduation in the behavioral and biomedical science research-focused majors, and continued success along the trajectory toward research careers. This program will augment our current NIH-sponsored Bridges to the Doctorate for Minority Nursing Students program in the College of Nursing.

描述（由申请人提供）：精心定义的政策和协调计划可以帮助两年年的大学在增加代表性不足的学生的比例中发挥重要作用，他们成功完成行为和生物医学科学研究的重点，并继续在其选择领域中成功地研究研究生。 The program described in this proposal will leverage existing partnerships, strategies and resources between the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) and four City Colleges of Chicago (CCC) to improve the transfer pipeline and baccalaureate degree completion of underrepresented students in behavioral and biomedical research focused science careers represented in our College of Nursing, School of Public Health and College of Liberal Arts and Sciences (Biology, Chemistry, Psychology,物理）。拟议的计划还将增强UIC和CCC教师之间的合作和专业发展机会，这将为参与学生带来更强大的教育经验。 UIC是一所公共研究密集的大学，具有多样化的本科生。 CCC是为芝加哥市服务的七个机构社区学院系统。该提案将基于保证入学转移计划（GAT）计划的结构，这是一种合作伙伴关系，在他们在CCC机构之一完成头两年后，为CCC学生提供了保证本科入学的机会 - 通过提供各种支持和研究的教育活动，以增强未成年人的生物态度，以提高三位知识的学生的生物态度和研究良好的生物研究。通过提供加强的招聘工作，安置，培训和指导，我们可以使学生接触“研究科学的文化”，并提供学术支持，研究经验以及创建同伙/学习社区，以通过其本科课程将转学学生移动。此外，我们建议在整个UIC职业中跟踪这些学生，并衡量该计划对以行为和生物医学研究专注的专业的转移过程，保留，持久性，毕业，以及沿着研究职业的轨迹的持续成功。该计划将扩大我们目前在护理学院的少数民族护理学生计划的NIH赞助的桥梁。
