 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The RISE program continues to transform the academic environment at UPR-Cayey (UPRC) by focusing on the preparation of students to become scientists. As part of this long term goal of increasing the number of Hispanics studying for the Ph.D., this proposal is concentrating on helping students in four areas; i) their lack of awareness of career opportunities in biomedical research and of their own potential for it; ii) their limited research skills and experience; iii) limited quantitative and analytical skills; and v) inadequate learning skills. These were identified as critical areas needing assistance and individual program components (5) have been designed to address these needs: Research Seminars and Workshops (RSW), Undergraduate Research Experiences (URE), Guided Discovery Chemistry (GDC), Quantitative and Spatial Analysis skills (QSS) and, Freshmen Research Skills (FRS). The implementation of each component will be monitored by an external evaluator working with the activity coordinators, program director, and the RISE Advisory Committee. In the RSW component, the visiting alumni scientists will offer seminars and workshops to improve attendees' awareness of new techniques and discover science careers, and to serve as role models. An improvement in the research skills of motivated students will be accomplished during their first year by having them participate in activities related to research techniques and scientific literacy. RISE students will take Discovery Chemistry (GDC) to enhance their learning skills based on observation, interpretation, and drawing of conclusions, rather than memorization. URE activities for 14 students will be offered during the academic year in Puerto Rico with active investigators at UPRC and four collaborating institutions. Additional research experiences will be offered to over 12 students during summer internships at 20 collaborating institutions in the USA. The students will be able to develop their mathematical and reasoning skills in scientific context by attending the workshops offered under the QSS component. It will also help them improve their visual communication skills. In addition, the activities designed under the program will have a positive impact on curriculum development and faculty training in new teaching methods that have been found to be effective in reducing attrition rates. Each component enables students to develop their potential by interacting with a different group of experts: 1) research skills with faculty mentors; 2) motivational seminars by visiting alumni scientists; 3) inquiry methodology by chemistry faculty; 4) mathematical skills with the activity coordinator; and 5) research lab experience with either on-island research mentors or with off-island scientists located in the USA. Each of these activities will provide the students with an appropriate environment and interaction with experts in order to develop scientifically and become future biomedical researchers. During the last 5 years (2010-14), 32 RISE alumni completed Ph.D.'s from major research universities, a 100% increase over the previous five-year period. By doubling the number of Ph.D. alumni, RISE will impact the community. These UPRC scientists will serve to meet the health disparity needs of the Hispanic population in Puerto Rico and the nation by working to discover the causes and remedies of diseases.

 描述（由申请人提供）：RISE计划继续通过专注于学生成为科学家的准备来改变UPR Cayey（UPRC）的学术环境。作为增加西班牙裔攻读博士学位人数的长期目标的一部分，这项建议集中在四个方面帮助学生：i）他们对生物医学研究的就业机会和本身的潜力缺乏认识; ii）他们的研究技能和经验有限; iii）定量和分析技能有限;以及v）学习技能不足。这些被确定为需要帮助的关键领域，并设计了单独的计划组件（5）来满足这些需求：研究研讨会和讲习班（RSW），本科生研究经验（URE），指导发现化学（GDC），定量和空间分析技能（QSS）和，新生研究技能（FRS）。每个组成部分的实施将由一名外部评估人员与活动协调员、项目主任和RISE咨询委员会合作进行监测。在RSW部分，访问校友科学家将提供研讨会和讲习班，以提高与会者对新技术的认识，发现科学事业，并作为榜样。在积极的学生的研究技能的提高将在他们的第一年完成，让他们参加有关的研究技术和科学素养的活动。RISE学生将参加发现化学（GDC）课程，以提高他们基于观察，解释和得出结论的学习技能，而不是记忆。在波多黎各的学年期间，将与UPRC和四个合作机构的积极调查人员一起为14名学生提供URE活动。在美国20个合作机构的暑期实习期间，将为超过12名学生提供额外的研究经验。学生将能够通过参加QSS组件下提供的研讨会来发展他们在科学背景下的数学和推理技能。这也将帮助他们提高他们的视觉沟通技巧。此外，根据该方案设计的活动将对课程开发和教师培训产生积极影响，这些新的教学方法已被发现可有效降低减员率。每个组成部分使学生能够通过与不同的专家组互动来发展他们的潜力：1）与教师导师的研究技能; 2）访问校友科学家的激励研讨会; 3）化学教师的调查方法; 4）与活动协调员的数学技能;和5）与岛上研究导师或位于美国的岛外科学家的研究实验室经验。每一项活动都将提供 学生有一个适当的环境和与专家互动，以科学发展，成为未来的生物医学研究人员。在过去的5年（2010-14），32上升校友完成博士学位。来自主要研究型大学，比前五年增加了100%。通过将博士数量增加一倍，校友，RISE将影响社区。这些UPRC科学家将通过努力发现疾病的原因和治疗方法，满足波多黎各和全国西班牙裔人口的健康差异需求。
