DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposal is a competing continuation application for an existing Bridges to the Baccalaureate Degree Program (PAR-02-084) at New Mexico State University (NMSU), Las Cruces. The program proposes to serve American Indian (Al) students at five community colleges. These institutions enroll 6,142 Al students from the Din< (Navajo) Nation, the Jicarilla Apache Nation, and nineteen New Mexico Pueblos. They include: Three true tribal community colleges, Din College at Shiprock, NM, Din College at Tsaile, AZ, and Southwestern Indian Polytechnic Institute at Albuquerque, NM; lone state-supported community college, University of New Mexico Gallup Branch at Gallup, NM; and one true community college, San Juan College at Farmington, NM. Funding for 3 years is requested for programmatic activities that attract, enrich, enhance preparedness, and advance Al 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 Al 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 Al 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), 17 Al 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: enhancing computer skills for analysis of research data; discussions of ethical conduct of research; comprehensive laboratory safety training; preparation of research posters; 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 B.S. program at NMSU. (v) This application proposes to transfer 70% of its summer research participants to B.S. institutions and to graduate 70% of the transferees With a B.S. degree, (vi) Opportunities are proposed for science instructors from the community colleges to conduct research during the summer months. This Bridge Program has advanced 64.9% (120 of 185 total) of its summer research participants into baccalaureate degree programs since 1992. Also, 64.8% of these transferred Al students have completed B.S. degrees.

描述（由申请人提供）：本提案是拉斯克鲁塞斯新墨西哥州州立大学（NMSU）现有学士学位课程（PAR-02-084）的竞争延续申请。该方案建议在五所社区学院为美国印第安人（Al）学生提供服务。这些机构招收了来自丁（纳瓦霍）民族、Jouzilla Apache民族和19个新墨西哥州普韦布洛人的6,142名Al学生。它们包括：三个真正的部落社区学院，丁学院在希普罗克，新墨西哥州，丁学院在蔡莱，亚利桑那州，西南印度理工学院在阿尔伯克基，新墨西哥州;孤独的国家支持的社区学院，新墨西哥州大学盖洛普分支在盖洛普，新墨西哥州;和一个真正的社区学院，圣胡安学院在法明顿，新墨西哥州。要求提供3年的资金用于吸引，丰富，加强准备的方案活动，并将Al学生推进到与生物医学科学相一致的学士学位课程。该申请的年度目标是：（i）将在社区学院组织一系列学术年度研讨会/讲座/研讨会，由来自NMSU的30名教师主持。这将介绍>120人工智能科学专业的研究在生物医学和生物医学相关的研究在NMSU进展的就业机会。(ii)从学生池的目标（一），30-35铝学生将访问NMSU校园每年春天为期两天的迎新计划，为即将到来的夏季研究经验做准备，（三）从学生池的目标（二），17铝学生将进行全职研究与教师导师，并参加许多结构化的丰富研讨会在九个夏季周在NMSU的校园。讲习班将包括：提高计算机技能，分析研究数据;讨论研究的道德行为;全面的实验室安全培训;准备研究海报;学术转移证明;以及完成B.S.的财务规划。（iv）教师研讨会主持人将担任暑期研究导师，并在学生转入学士学位后担任学术顾问。NMSU的程序。(v)该申请建议将其夏季研究参与者的70%转移到BS。机构和毕业70%的受让人与学士学位。（vi）建议让社区学院的科学导师有机会在暑期进行研究。自1992年以来，这一桥梁方案已将其夏季研究参与者的64.9%（185人中的120人）提高到学士学位课程。此外，64.8%的这些转移Al学生已完成学士学位。度
