Guided Research Experiences for Minority Scholars (Engineering)

马凯特大学工程学院将建立一个基础广泛的教育机会计划，以吸引本科少数民族学生进入工程学，在完成学位后留住他们参加工程学课程，并为他们的研究生涯做好准备。少数民族学者研究生涯计划将依赖于学院在生物医学、土木、机械、工业、电气和计算机工程方面的强大学术项目、高质量的教员、最先进的设施、与行业的合作伙伴关系以及成功培养少数民族学生的传统。学院将在四年的资助期内挑选16名优秀的少数族裔学者参加一项结合了学术年度课程工作、研究项目工作和10周暑期充实计划的计划。丰富活动的目的是为新生建立一个成功的过渡，促进对工程的长期兴趣，并让学生沉浸在工程研究中。作为其关键组成部分，该计划提供财政援助；通过导师、榜样和咨询计划培养学术成功和个人成长；通过学术和工业环境中的项目工作提供发展独立研究技能的独特机会；培养对工程专业的个人认同感；并提供进入研究生学习计划所需的鼓励、准备和帮助。

The Marquette University College of Engineering will establish a broad-based educational opportunity program to attract undergraduate minority students to engineering, to retain them in engineering programs through degree completion, and to prepare them for research careers. The Research Careers for Minority Scholars program will rely on the College's strong academic programs in Biomedical, Civil, Mechanical, Industrial, Electrical and Computer Engineering; its quality faculty; its state-of-the-art facilities; its partnership with industry; and its tradition in successfully training minority students. The College will select 16 outstanding minority scholars over the four-year grant period to participate in a program that combines academic-year course work, research project work, and 10-week summer enrichment programs. The enrichment activities are designed to establish a successful transition for freshmen students, to promote a long-term interest in engineering, and to immerse students in engineering research. As its key components, the program provides financial assistance; nurtures academic success and personal growth through mentorship, role model, and advising programs; offers unique opportunities for developing independent research skills through project work in academic and industrial settings; fosters a personal identification with the engineering profession; and offers the encouragement, preparation, and assistance necessary to enter programs of graduate study.
