 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposal is a competing continuation application for an existing Bridges to the Baccalaureate Degree (BS) Program (PAR-13-333) at New Mexico State University (NMSU), Las Cruces. The program proposes to serve American Indian (AI) students at two community colleges. These institutions enroll 2,476 AI students (data from year 2013) from the Diné (Navajo) Nation, the Jicarilla Apache Nation, and eight Pueblos in New Mexico. They include: one true tribal community college, Diné College at Shiprock, NM, and one state-supported community college, and the University of New Mexico Gallup Branch at Gallup, NM. Funding for 5 years is requested for programmatic activities that attract, enrich, enhance preparedness, and advance AI students into baccalaureate degree programs aligned with the biomedical sciences. The annual goals of this application are: (i) An academic-year seminar/lecture/workshop series will be organized at the community colleges with 30 faculty presenters from NMSU. This will introduce >120 AI science majors to research career opportunities in biomedicine and biomedical-related research in progress at NMSU. (ii) From the student pool in goal (i), 30-35 AI students will visit the NMSU campus each spring for a two-day orientation program to prepare for forthcoming summer research experiences. (iii) From the student pool of goal (ii), 12 AI students will conduct fulltime research with a faculty mentor and participate in many structured enrichment workshops during nine summer weeks at the campus of NMSU. Workshops will include: enhancement of computer skills for conducting research and preparing a scientific poster; discussions of ethical conduct of research; comprehensive laboratory safety training; development of scientific writing and presentation skills; academic transfer advisement; and financial planning for completion of the B.S. degree; (iv) Faculty seminar presenters will serve as summer research mentors and as academic advisors after students transfer to a BS program at NMSU. (v) This application proposes to transfer 75% of its summer research participants to BS institutions and to graduate 75% of the transferees with a BS degree. This Bridge Program has advanced 70.6% (207 of 293 total, Year 2012) of its summer research participants into baccalaureate degree programs since 1992. Also, 67.4% of these transferred AI students have completed BS degrees within 10 semesters of transferring to a baccalaureate institution.

 描述（由应用程序提供）：该提案是新墨西哥州大学（NMSU）的现有桥梁（BS）计划（BS）计划（BS）计划（BS）计划（BS）计划（BS 13-333）的竞争性延续申请。该计划的建议为两所社区学院的美洲印第安人（AI）学生提供服务。这些机构从Diné（Navajo）Nation，Jicarilla Apache Nation和新墨西哥州的八个Pueblos招募了2,476名AI学生（2013年的数据）。其中包括：一所真正的部落社区学院，新墨西哥州船洛克的迪内学院和一所国家支持的社区学院，以及新墨西哥州盖洛普的新墨西哥大学盖洛普分公司。要求提供5年的资金，以吸引，丰富，增强准备并使AI学生进入与生物医学科学一致的学士学位课程。该应用程序的年度目标是：（i）将在社区学院举办一个学年的半阶级/讲座/讲习班系列，由NMSU的30位教师演讲者组织。这将介绍> 120个AI科学专业的专业，以研究NMSU正在进行的生物医学和生物医学相关研究的职业机会。 （ii）从目标（i）中的学生池中，30-35名AI学生将每年春季访问NMSU校园，以进行为期两天的迎新计划，为即将到来的夏季研究经验做准备。 （iii）从学生群（II）的学生群中，有12名AI学生将在NMSU校园内的九个夏季，在九个夏季的九个夏季参加许多结构化的丰富研讨会。讲习班将包括：提高计算机技能，用于进行研究和准备科学海报；讨论研究的道德行为；全面的实验室安全培训；发展科学写作和演讲技巧；学术转学建议；以及完成学士学位的财务计划程度; （iv）教师开创性的演讲者将担任夏季研究导师，并在学生转学到NMSU的BS计划后担任学术顾问。 （v）该申请提案将其75％的夏季研究参与者转移到BS机构，并以BS学位毕业75％的转学。自1992年以来，该桥梁计划已将其夏季研究参与者的夏季研究参与者提高了70.6％（293年，2012年，2012年）。此外，这些转移的AI学生中有67.4％在转移到学士学位机构的10个学期内完成了BS学位。
