DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The intent of this COMPETITIVE CONTINUATION PROPOSAL for the MARC U*STAR is to continue to strengthen our present program, provide a quality education through cross-disciplinary science curricula and research training to highly capable minority undergraduates in order to enable them to successfully pursue doctoral degrees in biomedical research. The junior/senior MARC Honors program is centered in the departments of Biological Sciences and the Physical Sciences (biochemistry, chemistry and mathematics). This proposal also contains a Pre-MARC component as it is deemed critical in preparing our POOL of well qualified, academically strong, research oriented students for our MARC U*STAR Program. The four-year program will include, but not be limited to the following: 1. implementation of a cross-disciplinary, math intensive curriculum to better prepare our Trainees for the various fields in biomedical research. 2. participation in intramural & extramural research to provide role models, research training, networking and experience in the proper conduct of research 3. mentoring and career guidance to increase the number of Trainees who are successful in pursuing graduate degree programs in biomedical research 4. integration of proven strategies that will enable our MARC trainees to become stronger independent learners, improve their scientific reading, writing & communication skills 5. preparation for our Trainees through a four-year focused test-taking model to enable a stronger performance on the MCAT/GRE exams 6. presentation of a Speakers Series to broaden research knowledge, role modeling and career options 7. development of electronic personal portfolios to monitor Trainee expertise in independent learning habits, professional presentations and interview skills 8. establish a Science/Math Center focused on collaborative problem solving & mentoring While ambitious, this program will offer our Pre-MARC and MARC U*STAR Trainees the challenges and support that will enable them to develop into qualified biomedical researchers.

描述(由申请人提供)：MARC U*STAR的这项竞争性继续申请的目的是继续加强我们目前的计划，通过跨学科的科学课程和研究培训为高能力的少数族裔本科生提供优质教育，使他们能够成功地攻读生物医学研究方面的博士学位。初级/高级MARC荣誉课程集中在生物科学系和物理科学系(生物化学、化学和数学)。该提案还包含MARC前准备部分，因为它被认为对我们为MARC U*STAR计划培养一批合格、学术实力强、以研究为导向的学生至关重要。这项为期四年的计划将包括但不限于以下内容： 1.实施跨学科、数学密集的课程，为学员在生物医学研究的各个领域做好准备。 2.参与校内和校外研究，以提供适当开展研究的榜样、研究培训、网络和经验 3.辅导和职业指导，以增加成功攻读生物医学研究研究生学位课程的学员人数 4.整合行之有效的策略，使我们的MARC学员成为更强大的独立学习者，提高他们的科学阅读、写作和沟通能力。 5.通过为期四年的集中考试模式为学员做好准备，使他们在MCAT/GRE考试中取得更好的表现 6.介绍演讲者系列，以拓宽研究知识、榜样和职业选择 7.开发电子个人档案，以监测学员在独立学习习惯、专业陈述和面试技能方面的专门知识 8.建立科学/数学中心，专注于协作解决问题和辅导 虽然雄心勃勃，但该计划将为我们的MARC预科和MARC U*STAR学员提供挑战和支持，使他们能够发展成为合格的生物医学研究人员。
