Strengthening and Expanding Partnerships and Access through the CMPS-MSI Scholars' Research Network

合作多种族选举后调查（CMPS）-少数民族服务机构（MSI）学者研究网络旨在建立和扩大少数民族服务机构（MSI）学者的参与，特别是那些第一代大学生，和/或谁确定为黑人，拉丁裔和美洲土著印第安人。位于加州大学洛杉矶分校的长期CMPS研究项目与三个MSIs之间的这种伙伴关系（Diné College-Tsaile，霍华德大学，和新墨西哥州大学）将加强对美国不同人群的理解，以及当代美国一些最重要的社会科学研究课题。作为一个研究锚，该项目通过支持MSI研究人员的不同群体来沟通和协调他们的学术研究工作，为建立研究、出版和授予写作专业知识创造了新的途径。 该补助金为MSI提供了三个MSI校区的研究生研究支持和研究/补助金写作研讨会。它还为MSI学者提供资金，以参加在加州大学洛杉矶分校举行的CMPS学者研究网络会议，并为身为CMPS国家咨询委员会成员的MSI学者提供资金，以参加董事会会议。该项目的目标是推进学术生涯，并通过研究为基础的网络，导师和黑人，拉丁裔和土著学者在MSIs的专业发展的支持，帮助研究生和教师保留的努力。这项赠款支持的活动，包括小型MSI工作组会议和MSI研究人员出席CMPS夏季研究研讨会，是为了为MSI合作伙伴（教师领导和工作组参与者）提供便利，有意的机会，以建立和建立与全国各地的学者和社会科学高级学者的关系。MSI的学者也将有机会展示他们的研究项目，以鼓励跨机构的支持和合作。 夏季研讨会是一个高效和有效的途径，创造导师和专业社交的机会，包括论文，文章和赠款提案的合著。这个奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是值得通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估的支持。

The Collaborative Multiracial Post-Election Survey (CMPS)-Minority Serving Institution (MSI) Scholars’ Research Network aims to build and broaden the participation of scholars from Minority Serving Institutions (MSIs), especially those who are first-generation college students, and/or who identify as Black, Latinx, and Native American Indian. This partnership between the longstanding CMPS research project, housed at the University of California-Los Angeles, and three MSIs (Diné College-Tsaile, Howard University, and the University of New Mexico) will enhance the understanding of diverse populations in the U.S. and some of the most critical social science research topics in the contemporary U.S. Using the CMPS dataset collected after the November 2020 presidential election as a research anchor, this project creates new avenues to build research, publication, and grant writing expertise by supporting diverse groups of MSI researchers to communicate and coordinate their academic research efforts. This grant provides MSIs with graduate student research support and research/grant writing workshops at each of the three MSI campuses. It also provides funding for MSI scholars to attend the CMPS Scholars Research Network Conference at UCLA and funding for MSI scholars who are CMPS National Advisory Board Members, to attend the board meetings. The goal of this project is to advance academic careers and aid graduate student and faculty retention efforts through the support of research-based networks, mentorship, and professional development of Black, Latinx, and Indigenous scholars at MSIs. The activities supported by this grant, including small MSI working group meetings and MSI researcher attendance at the CMPS Summer Research Workshop, is to provide facilitated, intentional opportunities for MSI partners (faculty leads and working group participants) to build and establish relationships with scholars across the country and senior scholars in the social sciences. MSI scholars will also have an opportunity to showcase their research projects to encourage cross-institutional support and collaboration. The summer workshop is an efficient and effective avenue for creating mentorship and professional socialization opportunities, including co-authorship of papers, articles, and grant proposal.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
