UMDNJ-RUTGERS UNIVERSITY PIPELINE PROGRAM

这项提议是建立UMDNJ-罗格斯大学管道 帮助代表不足的少数族裔(URM)学生 进入生物医学研究领域。这个节目的名字反映了 我们认为需要更广泛的管道来增加 学生正在接受科学职业生涯的培训。这其中的第一个目标是 该项目旨在增加URM学生的数量，为 S博士在生物医学方面。这一目标将通过 为城市管理学院提供暑期和学年研究项目 本科生，为他们的研究生学习做准备和激励。 我们还将通过设立一个过渡年来“拓宽管道”。 计划使弱势少数族裔学生能够进入高度 竞争激烈的分子生物科学研究生课程 这两个项目的5个研究生项目之间的合作努力 大学。罗伯特·伍德·约翰逊医学院(RWJMS)是 在招收和毕业URM医学生方面处于领先地位。我们计划 增加医学硕士项目中的URM学生的数量 以研究为主的职业。该计划将包括以下支持 URM医科学生的暑期和学年研究计划， 以及增加医学博士项目的URM招生人数。 这项建议是基于两者之间的合作提出的 教育和研究方面的大学及其现有的课程 促进城市轨道交通管理人员的科学培训。

This proposal is to establish the UMDNJ-Rutgers University Pipeline Program for assisting underrepresented minority (URM) students to enter careers in biomedical research. This program's name reflects our belief that a wider pipeline is needed to increase the number of students in training for science careers. The first goal of this project is to increase the number of URM students preparing for Ph.D.'s in the biomedical sciences. This goal will be met by providing summer and academic year research programs for URM undergraduates, to prepare and motivate them for graduate studies. We will also "widen the pipeline" by establishing a transitional year program to enable disadvantaged minority students to enter the highly competitive graduate programs in the Molecular Biosciences, a collaborative effort between 5 graduate programs of these two universities. UMDNJ-Robert Wood Johnson Medical School (RWJMS) is a leader in recruiting and graduating URM medical students. We plan to increase the number of URM students in the M.D. program who pursue research-oriented careers. This program will include support for summer and academic year research programs for URM medical students, as well as increased URM recruitment into the M.D./Ph.D. program. This proposal is based on the collaboration between the two universities in education and research, and their existing programs promoting scientific training of URMs.
