Project Summary Brooklyn College’s U-RISE proposal aims to increase the diversity of our science workforce by providing individuals from groups historically under-represented in STEM with the preparation, confidence and self- efficacy to pursue graduate studies and succeed in obtaining doctoral degrees and launching a STEM career. About half of Brooklyn College’s students are eligible for U-RISE based on race/ethnicity or low-income criteria. We strive for (1) 98% of U-RISE trainees to obtain baccalaureate degrees (adjusted from 100% because of the deep impact of the pandemic in New York City); (2) 60% of U-RISE graduates to matriculate into doctoral programs. Out of these, our objective is that at least 90% will complete their doctoral degrees. Overall, we aim for over 50% of our U-RISE trainees to eventually attain doctoral degrees. We have recruited 29 faculty members, including eight from under-represented groups themselves, to serve as U-RISE mentors. Participating mentors are profoundly committed to undergraduate research. Students will be recruited into the program in their sophomore or junior years. Approximately 80 trainees will be served over the five-year tenure of this program. Meaningful faculty-mentored research experiences are at the core of our program. Trainees will participate in research both at Brooklyn College during the academic year and at R1 institutions during the summer. Moreover, trainees will be advised and mentored by program staff as well as faculty. Further, they will receive instruction in research design, statistics, responsible conduct of research, rigor and reproducibility, scientific communication, study skills, and mentee responsibilities among other topics. We will also include activities to promote holistic student wellbeing (mental health and social support, family involvement) as well as activities for professional development. This U-RISE program will synergize with other undergraduate research programs in STEM on campus via the Center for Achievement in Science Education. The Brooklyn College U-RISE program will improve upon a tradition of excellence and a wide-array of activities set by a long-standing MARC program by: (1) recruiting students at earlier stages of training, (2) training faculty in mentorship practices and (3) supporting important skills such as biomedical computing and scientific communication, among others.

项目摘要 布鲁克林学院的U-Rise提案旨在通过提供 在STEM中，来自历史上代表不足的群体的个人具有准备、自信和自我 继续研究生学习并成功获得博士学位和开始STEM职业生涯的有效性。 根据种族或低收入标准，布鲁克林学院约有一半的学生有资格申请U-Rise。 我们争取(1)98%的U-Rise学员获得学士学位(从100%调整为 大流行对纽约市的深刻影响)；(2)60%的U-Rise毕业生进入博士学位 程序。在这些人中，我们的目标是至少有90%的人能完成博士学位。总的来说，我们的目标是 超过50%的U-Rise实习生最终获得博士学位。 我们已经招聘了29名教职员工，其中包括8名来自代表性不足的团体的教职员工 U-Rise的导师。参与计划的导师们对本科生的研究有着深刻的承诺。学生们将成为 在他们二年级或三年级时被招募到这个项目中。约80名学员将在 这项计划的任期为五年。 有意义的教师指导的研究经验是我们项目的核心。学员将参加 本学年在布鲁克林学院进行研究，夏季在R1学院进行研究。 此外，受训者将得到项目工作人员以及教职员工的建议和指导。此外，他们还将收到 指导研究设计、统计、负责任地进行研究、严谨和可重复性、科学 沟通、学习技能和学员责任等主题。我们还将包括以下活动 促进学生的全面福祉(心理健康和社会支持、家庭参与)以及活动 为了职业发展。这一U-Rise项目将与其他本科生研究相协同 通过科学教育成就中心在校园内开展STEM项目。 布鲁克林学院的U-Rise计划将在卓越的传统和广泛的活动基础上进行改进 由一个长期存在的MARC计划设定：(1)在培训的早期阶段招收学生，(2)培训 教授指导实践和(3)支持重要技能，如生物医学计算和科学 通信，以及其他。
