REBUILD Detroit

重建底特律计划的总体目标是建立一个由4个机构组成的联盟（底特律大学）。 底特律慈善学院、玛丽格罗夫学院、韦恩县社区学院区和韦恩州立大学） 在底特律市中心，共同努力，培养代表性不足的少数民族学生成为明天的领导者， 生物医学研究重建底特律计划的研究增强部分监督三个 更大项目的方方面面。首先，它为UD Mercy和WCCCD的INSPIRE实验室提供资金， 为探究式学习和早期进入本科研究提供最先进的空间。 第二，它修改了所有四所大学的入门级课程，以提供真实的研究 在第一年的课程经验，为建设学者。这些课程，围绕研究设计， 协调网络（RCN）模型，提供分布式项目，学生在其中收集真实的研究数据 而不是执行固定的教学练习，用我们做科学的方式来教科学。这些数据得到 在多个地点和多年的整合，直到研究论文可以使用这些数据发表。 这些课程包括分析化学（第二学期普通化学），生物信息学 和基因组学（生物学课程第二学期），以及一门在两个学校都教授的健康差异课程。 社会学或心理学系取决于学校。最后，学生从RCN过渡 在第一年之后的夏天， 在他们的大学时代。高影响力的做法，如早期进入真正的本科 研究是发展科学家自我认同的关键因素之一，并导致更大的毕业 在代表性不足和经济弱势群体中， 学生最后，加强对所有机构的学生和教师的指导将有助于 在尊重不同学术文化的同时，提高四个校区的学术生产力 存在于整个财团中。这些活动与联合国系统内其他核心的活动完全结合在一起， 重建底特律计划。

The overall goal of the REBUILD Detroit program is to create a consortium of 4 insittuions (University of Detroit Mercy, Marygrove College, Wayne County Community College District and Wayne State University) in downtown Detroit to work together to train underrepresented minority students to be tomorrow's leaders in biomedical research. The research enhancement portion of the REBUILD Detroit program oversee three aspects of the bigger project. First, it provides funds to equip the INSPIRE labs at UD Mercy and WCCCD to provide state of the art spaces for inquiry-based learning and early entry into undergradaute research. Second, it revamps curricula entry-level curriculum at all four institutions to provide authentic research experiences in first year courses for BUILD Scholars. These courses, designed around the Research Coordination Network (RCN) model, provide distributed projects in which students colllect real research data rather than perform canned pedagogical exercises, teaching science the way we do sciene. Those data get integrated over multiple sites and multiple years until research papers can be published using those data. These courses encompass the fields fo analytical chemistry (2nd semester general chemistry), bioinformatics and genomics (second semester in the biology curriculum) and a course in health disparities taught in either the sociology or psychology department depending on the school. Finally, students transition from the RCN course into mentored research experiences during the summer after their first year which then persist throughout their college years. High impact practices such as early entry into authentic undergraduate research is one of the key factors in developing self-identity as a scientist and leads to greater graduation rates and higher persistence in science majors among under-represented and economically disadvantaged students. Finally, enhanced mentoring of both the students and the faculty across all institutions will help to elevate the scholarly productivity across all four campuses while respecting the different academic cultures that exist across the consortium. These activities are fully integrated with those fo the other Cores within the REBUILD Detroit program.
