U-RISE at Cal Poly

生物医学领域科学家之间持续缺乏多样性是影响我们国家 健康和研究的未来。有色人种、残疾人和社会经济 处于不利地位的个人在研究队伍中的比例一直偏低。故意设计的， 结构化的培训计划对于代表性不足的学生至关重要，因为有证据表明他们的保留率较低 和对科学项目的归属感，以及科学研究与他们的 个人经历和价值观。加州保利的U-Rise将建立在现有的包容性基础设施之上，以 建立一个新颖的、基于证据的培训计划，让来自代表性不足群体的学生参与到 研究机会，发展他们作为科学家的身份，并为成功留下灵感和充分准备 在生物医学领域的研究生院。加州大学保利分校的U-Rise由四个关键部分组成，为期两年 培训计划：1)指导团队和个人发展规划；2)强有力的指导研究 经验；3)正式课程工作，以培养能力并支持科学家的发展；4) 课外方案丰富活动(例如，研究研讨会、专业发展、 团队建设)。加州大学保利分校U-Rise的主要目标是提供一个全面的、有指导的两年制 生物医学研究培训计划，将作为UR学生完成生物医学的途径， 研究型研究生学位。要实现的其他目标包括(1)改进A) 在符合道德规范的情况下开展和传播生物医学研究所需的概念和技术技能 具有责任心和严谨的态度，B)了解生物医学研究职业和职业发展 从事生物医学研究生教育的技能，以及C)科学认同感、自我效能和归属感 生物医学研究；以及(2)加强促进生物医学研究的多样性、公平性和包容性 加州大学保利分校在教师敬业度和学生认知方面都有所改善。

The persistent lack of diversity among scientists in the biomedical field is a critical issue affecting our nation’s health and the future of research. People of color, individuals with disabilities, and socioeconomically disadvantaged individuals are persistently underrepresented in the research workforce. Intentionally designed, structured training programs are critical for underrepresented students given evidence of their lower retention and sense of belonging in science programs, and the perceived disconnect of scientific research from their personal experience and values. U-RISE at Cal Poly will build on an existing, inclusive infrastructure to establish a novel, evidence-based training program where students from underrepresented groups engage in research opportunities, develop their identities as scientists, and leave inspired and well prepared for success in graduate school in the biomedical field. U-RISE at Cal Poly consists of four key components over a 2-year training program: 1) Mentoring team and individual development planning; 2) Robust mentored research experience; 3) Formal coursework to build capacity and support development as a scientist and 4) Programmatic enrichment events outside the classroom (e.g., research seminars, professional development, team building). The primary objective of U-RISE at Cal Poly is to provide a comprehensive, mentored, two-year biomedical research training program that will serve as a pathway for UR students to complete a biomedical, research-focused graduate degree. Additional objectives to be achieved include (1) improvements in A) Conceptual and technical skills needed to conduct and disseminate biomedical research in an ethically responsible and rigorous manner, B) Knowledge of biomedical research careers and professional development skills to pursue biomedical graduate education, and C) Science identity, self-efficacy, and belonging in biomedical research; and (2) enhance promotion of diversity, equity, and inclusivity in biomedical research at Cal Poly in terms of both faculty engagement and students perceptions.
