SDSU IMSD Program PROJECT SUMMARY The overall aim of the SDSU Initiative for Maximizing Student Development (IMSD) Program is to increase the number of students from underrepresented groups who attain Ph.D. degrees in the biomedical, physical and behavioral sciences. We will facilitate their exposure to science, academia and careers as researchers. The program will provide 25 undergraduates with faculty mentoring, customized advising, extracurricular experiences and opportunities for communicating with engaged peers each year during the course of the project period. We have assembled a dedicated group of research-active mentors who will provide our students with hands-on research training. Our management and assessment plan will measure and ensure program and student success. We will provide a highly personalized experience to the students so that they can become the successful science leaders of tomorrow, and thereby, improve the diversity of research scientists. Furthermore, we provide documentation of the effects our program has had upon students. Our program will continue to help students to build strong, highly competitive applications for doctoral programs so that they will directly enter into STEM Ph.D. programs (we have an average direct Ph.D. acceptance rate of 88.2% in the last 5 years). To accomplish our goals, we plan to (1) provide year-round mentored research experiences that will allow 25 IMSD undergraduate students to acquire excellent research and laboratory skills, (2) continue with our Pre-IMSD Program to recruit STEM freshman/sophomore students early (unfunded by IMSD) to introduce biomedical research and the pathway to preparing for graduate school, and (3) develop the critical thinking and oral and written communication skills of all program participants, by providing opportunities to present their research before professional audiences and to contribute to manuscripts for publication. We also propose aims related to program evaluation including (1) to systematically measure program outcomes with mixed methods of quantitative and qualitative data collection and the establishment of a comprehensive electronic tracking database, (2) to use the data to continuously improve the program by maintaining elements that are most effective, and (3) to communicate the success of the SDSU IMSD Program.

SDSU IMSD计划 项目摘要 SDSU最大化学生发展计划（IMSD）的总体目标是提高学生的 来自代表性不足群体的获得博士学位的学生人数生物医学、物理学和 行为科学我们将促进他们接触科学，学术界和研究人员的职业生涯。的 该计划将为25名本科生提供教师指导，定制咨询，课外经验 以及在项目期间每年与参与的同行交流的机会。我们 我已经召集了一个专门的研究活跃的导师谁将为我们的学生提供实践小组 研究训练。我们的管理和评估计划将衡量和确保计划和学生 成功我们将为学生提供高度个性化的体验，使他们能够成为 未来成功的科学领导者，从而提高研究科学家的多样性。此外，委员会认为， 我们提供文件的影响，我们的计划已经对学生。我们的计划将继续帮助 学生建立强大的，高度竞争力的博士课程申请，使他们将直接进入 STEM博士程序（我们有一个平均直接博士学位。过去5年的接受率为88.2%）。到 为了实现我们的目标，我们计划（1）提供全年的指导研究经验，使25 IMSD 本科生获得优秀的研究和实验室技能，（2）继续我们的预IMSD 计划招收STEM大一/大二学生早期（由IMSD资助），以引入生物医学 研究和准备研究生院的途径，（3）发展批判性思维和口语， 所有计划参与者的书面沟通技巧，通过提供机会来展示他们的研究 在专业观众面前，并为出版贡献手稿。我们还提出了与以下方面有关的目标： 项目评估包括（1）用混合方法系统地衡量项目成果， 收集定量和定性数据，建立全面的电子跟踪系统， 数据库，（2）使用数据通过维护最重要的元素来不断改进程序 有效，（3）传达SDSU IMSD计划的成功。
