DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): There are few things as fundamental to the American Dream or as essential for America's success as a good education. This has never been more true than it is today. At a time when our children are competing with kids in China and India, the best job qualification you can have is a college degree or advanced training. If you do have that kind of education, then you're well prepared for the future -- because half of the fastest growing jobs in America require a Bachelor's degree or more" (President Obama, April 24, 2009) and the America COMPETES Act (P.L. 110-69) are mandates that show an awareness that the future of this country's social and economic well-being and stability depends on education of a technologically-competent workforce. The MBRS RISE program at CSUN seeks to increase the interest, overall skills and resources so that students will be actively and successfully engaged in mathematics, and natural and behavioral sciences. The program and the institution will provide developmental activities for undergraduate and graduate students. This program is designed to address the needs of CSUN students. It is based on the outcomes of our past program and best practices found in the literature. The CSUN MBRS RISE program provides support and developmental activities for those who arrive on campus under-prepared for college- level courses, and for those students who are better prepared for the rigorous curricula they encounter at this University. We propose a number of activities to enhance student development, promote successful completion of the bachelor or master's level degrees, and produce graduates that are highly competitive for graduate school programs. The MBRS RISE program offers a variety of workshops both during the summer and throughout the academic year to help students improve the fundamental skills needed in English, mathematics, and science. A number of these activities are already in place and we propose others to better meet the needs of the students. The program activities will not only positively impact student participants, but we expect that some of the activities will have an impact beyond those students who are chosen to participate in the activities preparing students for engagement in long-term research. The program components will be evaluated and used to improve the program. The specific aims of this proposal are: To increase the number of eligible students by 3% per year or 15% over the proposed award period; to increase the number of RISE undergraduates who enter graduate programs from 50% to 60% (MA/MS or Ph.D.); MA/MS students 82% to 90% into Ph.D. programs. We expect 100% retention in Ph.D. programs. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Science benefits from the contributions of diverse people and their perspectives. The Educational Research Program proposed in this application will provide opportunities for students to prepare for advanced degrees in basic biomedical sciences and will allow CSUN to develop a model that can be used to better prepare our diverse student body for advanced degrees in basic biomedical sciences. Higher educational attainment, in the USA, is associated with better health; students who continue in higher education can be expected to lead healthier lives in addition to making valuable contributions to science.

描述（由申请人提供）：几乎没有什么事情是美国梦的基础，或者对于美国作为良好教育的成功至关重要。这从来没有比今天更真实。在我们的孩子与中国和印度的孩子竞争的时候，您可以拥有的最好的工作资格是大学学位或高级培训。如果您确实接受了这种教育，那么您为未来做好了充分的准备 - 因为美国成长中最快的工作需要学士或更多的学位”（奥巴马总统，2009年4月24日）和《美国竞争法案》（P.L. 110-69）的要求表明，意识到该国的社会和经济健康和稳定的未来依赖于技术的努力，这是一项技术上的努力，并且在技术上有效地锻炼了一项努力，并且努力锻炼了一项技术的成熟范围，并依赖于技术上的努力。逐渐成熟的人胜任锻炼的努力均可努力地努力竞争。逐渐成熟的人类的努力均可努力竞争。为了提高兴趣，整体技能和资源将积极地从事数学，自然和行为科学，该计划将为本科生和研究生提供开发的需求。为大学课程做好准备，适合那些为他们在这所大学遇到的严格课程做好准备的学生。我们提出了许多活动，以增强学生的发展，促进学士学位或硕士学位的成功完成，并生产毕业生，这些毕业生对研究生院课程具有很高的竞争力。 MBRS Rise计划在夏季和整个学年中提供各种讲习班，以帮助学生提高英语，数学和科学所需的基本技能。这些活动中的许多活动已经到位，我们建议其他人更好地满足学生的需求。计划活动不仅会对学生参与者产生积极影响，而且我们希望其中一些活动将产生影响，而不是那些被选中参加为学生参与长期研究的活动的学生。将评估程序组件并用于改进程序。该提案的具体目的是：将合格学生的人数增加3％，或者在拟议奖励期内增加15％；为了将进入研究生课程的上升本科生的数量从50％增加到60％（MA/MS或博士学位）；博士学位的MA/MS学生82％至90％。程序。我们预计博士学位100％保留。程序。 公共卫生相关性：科学从不同的人的贡献及其观点中受益。本申请中提出的教育研究计划将为学生提供为基本生物医学科学的高级学位做准备的机会，并将允许CSUN开发一种模型，该模型可以用来更好地为我们的多样化的学生团体为基本生物医学科学的高级学位做好准备。在美国，更高的教育程度与改善健康有关。除了为科学做出宝贵的贡献外，还可以期望继续接受高等教育的学生。
