项目摘要 尽管STEM专业的本科生入学人数在过去20年里有所增加,但研究生入学人数和 一些小规模和代表性不足的群体在STEM纪律方面的保留基本保持不变。 事实上,随着受训者在培训和职业道路上的进步,来自不同群体的代表人数减少 从本科生到研究生课程,到博士后,最后到研究职业。建议的大学毕业后 俄勒冈大学提高生物医学科学韧性和坚持性的研究计划 (UO Prep Bio),旨在解决生物医学培训路径上的招聘、保留和成功方面的挑战 对于来自代表性不足背景的学者来说。在高度结构化、以课程为基础的本科生之间的过渡 课程向基本上无组织的学徒制模式的研究生教育可能是一个艰巨的挑战。这是 对于那些没有从以前的科学经验中受益的学生来说尤其如此,这些经验包括有指导的研究。 通过提供有目的的社区建设活动、个性化的指导、富有成效的研究经验,以及 学术和专业发展-所有循证实践,以增加STEM领域的持久性 代表性不足的群体-UO Prep Bio将使从本科生到研究生的培训成功过渡 在我们这群学者中。招聘工作将针对那些进行密集指导和研究的学员 在国际扶轮机构的经历将对他们获得博士录取的能力产生最重大的影响 计划以及谁将从社区建设和专业发展中受益,才能茁壮成长并坚持 一个充满挑战的博士环境。 UO Prep Bio每年将资助四名学者参加为期一年的培训计划。为了在社区中建立社区 与其他UO研究培训计划的参与者一样,UO Prep Bio学者将开始他们的培训 通过暑期桥牌项目,他们住在校园里,从事严格的写作和研究生申请 研讨会。学者将与一个指导团队相匹配,该团队将支持他们发展个人发展 计划,确保他们的研究和培训计划符合学者的个人和专业目标 毕业后培训和读研究生的愿望。通过在STEM中采用已证明可增加持久性的实践 在历史上代表性不足的受训人员中,UO Prep Bio将解决学术上的一个重要过渡时期 引导和加强不同背景的学者在生物医学研究中的代表性。
英文摘要
Project Summary Although undergraduate enrollment in STEM majors has increased in the last two decades, graduate enrollment and retention in STEM disciplines has remained largely unchanged for a number of minoritized and underrepresented groups. Indeed, representation from diverse groups decreases as trainees progress along the training and career pathway from undergraduate to graduate programs, through postdocs, and ultimately to research careers. The proposed postbaccalaureate research program, the University of Oregon Program to Increase Resilience and Enhance Persistence in Biomedical Sciences (UO PREP Bio), aims to address challenges in the recruitment, retention, and success along the biomedical training pathway for scholars from underrepresented backgrounds. The transition between a highly structured, course-based undergraduate curriculum to a largely unstructured apprenticeship model of graduate education can be a formidable challenge. This is particularly true for students who have not had the benefit of prior experiences in science that included mentored research. By offering intentional community building activities, individualized mentorship, productive research experiences, and academic and professional development—all evidence-informed practices for increasing persistence in STEM fields for underrepresented groups—UO PREP Bio will enable the successful transition from undergraduate to graduate training among our cohort of scholars. Recruitment efforts will target trainees for whom intensive mentorship and research experience at an RI institution would make the most significant impact in their ability to secure admission to a doctoral program and who would benefit from community building and professional development to be able to thrive and persist in a challenging PhD environment. UO PREP Bio will fund four scholars annually for a one-year training program. In order to build community among the cohort, as well as with participants in other UO research training programs, UO PREP Bio scholars will begin their training with a summer bridge program in which they live on campus and engage in rigorous writing and graduate application workshops. Scholars will be matched with a Mentor Team who will support them in developing an Individual Development Plan, ensuring that their research and training schedule addresses the scholar’s personal and professional goals for their postbac training and graduate school aspirations. By employing practices demonstrated to increase persistence in STEM among historically underrepresented trainees, UO PREP Bio will address a significant transition period in the academic pathway and enhance representation of scholars from diverse backgrounds in biomedical research.
