Academic Science Education and Research Training

描述（由申请人提供）：学术科学教育和研究培训（ASERT）是一个为期三年的博士后奖学金计划，该计划将密集的，指导性的研究与教育教学法和实践教学的证书课程相结合。该计划是新墨西哥州大学（UNM），一个研究密集型机构和两个少数民族服务机构（MSI）之间的正式财团;中央新墨西哥州（CNM）社区学院，新墨西哥州州立大学（NMSU）。西南印度理工学院（SIPI）和丁尼学院计划加入。IRACDA学者可以与50名参与教师合作，主题从单分子追踪到遗传学中的伦理，法律的和社会问题。UNM在工程，药理学，生物学和生物医学科学方面的跨学科研究计划提供了最先进的设施和独特的技术。一年级的研究员开始他们的研究项目，建立个人的专业发展目标，确定MSI教育导师和完成教育基础课程和UNM的研讨会。在第二年，研究员继续他们的研究，完成赠款写作，道德和其他专业发展培训，并制定个性化的教学计划，以满足MSI和研究员的需求。在第三年，研究员努力完成他们的研究，并积极讲课，运行实验室课程或进行评估。一个文件夹记录了所有的教学活动和反思性反馈用于同行评估。计划成果通过以下研究生产力（出版物，补助金）和职业道路跟踪来衡量。为了培养一批新的学者，他们对研究和教学都有卓越的双重承诺，UNM ASERT计划利用了新墨西哥州丰富的种族多样性，独特的少数民族服务机构（MSIs）以及UNM国际公认的研究和教育卓越。与服务于新墨西哥州的大多数西班牙裔和美洲土著人口的MSI的合作界面，并通过课程改进和主动学习的思想交流，以及科学和教学职业的角色建模，为科学界的多样化提供了丰富和肥沃的土壤。 公共卫生相关性声明：学术科学教育和研究培训（ASERT）是一个为有兴趣在大学或学院环境中追求职业生涯的博士学位的个人提供的计划。ASERT为学员提供研究和教学方面的实践经验。特别注意确保该方案的受训人员准备好解决我们种族，文化和社会多样性人口面临的健康和科学问题。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Academic Science Education and Research Training (ASERT) is a three-year postdoctoral fellowship program that couples intensive, mentored research with a certificate program in educational pedagogy and practical teaching. The program is a formal consortium between the University of New Mexico (UNM), a research-intensive institution, and two minority serving institutions (MSIs); Central New Mexico (CNM) Community College, New Mexico State University (NMSU). Southwestern Indian Polytechnic Institute (SIPI) and Din¿ College plan to join. IRACDA scholars may work with 50 participating faculty on topics ranging from single molecule tracking to ethical, legal and social issues in genetics. UNM's interdisciplinary research programs in engineering, pharmacology, biological and biomedical sciences offer access to state-of-the-art facilities and unique technologies. Year 1 fellows inaugurate their research project, establish individual professional development goals, identify an MSI education mentor and complete educational foundations coursework and workshops at UNM. In Year 2, fellows continue their research, complete grant-writing, ethics and other professional development training, and develop an individualized teaching plan that addresses the needs of the MSI and the fellow. During Year 3, fellows work toward finalizing their research and actively give lectures, run laboratory courses or conduct assessments. A portfolio documents all teaching activities and reflective feedback is used for fellow assessment. Program outcomes are measured by following research productivity (publications, grant awards) and career path tracking. To develop a new cadre of academics with a dual commitment to research and teaching excellence, the UNM ASERT program takes advantage of New Mexico's rich ethnic diversity, unique minority-serving institutions (MSIs), and UNM's internationally-recognized research and educational excellence. The collaborative interfaces with MSIs serving New Mexico's majority Hispanic and Native American populations and provide rich and fertile ground for diversifying the scientific community through the exchange of ideas for curriculum enhancement and active learning, as well as role- modeling of careers in science and teaching. Public Health Relevance Statement: Academic Science Education and Research Training (ASERT) is a program for individuals with doctoral degrees who are interested in pursuing careers in a University or College setting. ASERT provides trainees with practical experience in both research and teaching. Special attention is paid to ensuring that the program's trainees are prepared to address the health and scientific issues facing our ethnically, culturally and socially diverse populations.
