MINORITY BIOMEDICAL CAREER ENHANCEMENT AT CAL STATE LA

加州州立大学洛杉矶（加州州立大学洛杉矶分校）建议建立一个MBRS-RISE的努力，使少数群体成员进入生物医学研究事业的重大影响。 我们提出了三个发展活动的计划：一个为本科生，研究生和教师。目标是至少60%的参与本科生和75%的硕士生将进入研究生课程，最终获得博士学位。该计划将涉及本科生和硕士生的活动适合他们的水平，包括：一个坚实的科学课程，通过一个深思熟虑的课外活动计划，包括：在加州州立大学洛杉矶分校和其他机构的研究参与的强大机会;参加特别研讨会和课程;认真的学术和职业生涯的发展;通过RISE学生与科学教师和其他成功的加州州立大学洛杉矶分校科学学生的刻意互动建立网络;参与促进小组;参加生物医学科学研讨会系列。 该计划旨在培养学生在数学，科学和英语语言方面的扎实技能，以支持在自然科学和行为科学领域要求苛刻的本科专业和硕士课程中取得高学术成就。 学生发展活动涉及加州州立大学洛杉矶分校、加州大学洛杉矶分校、加州大学欧文分校、加州大学圣地亚哥分校和南加州大学之间的合作。期望参与者通过与学术和工业生物医学科学家的互动，以及参与扎实的研究经验，切实激励他们从事生物医学科学的职业;并为从本科生和硕士生过渡到博士做好充分准备。study.

California State University Los Angeles (Cal State LA) proposes to establish an MBRS-RISE effort to make a significant impact on the entry of minority group members into biomedical research careers. We propose a program of three developmental activities: one each for undergraduate, graduate students, and faculty. Objectives are that at least 60 percent of the participating undergraduates and 75 percent of the masters students will enroll in graduate programs leading to the Ph.D. The Program would involve undergraduates and master students in activities appropriate to their level and includes: a solid science curriculum enhanced by a program of deliberate co- curricular activities, including: strong opportunities for research participation at Cal State LA and other institutions; participation in special workshops and courses; careful academic and career advisement; networking through the deliberate interaction of the RISE students with science faculty and other successful Cal State LA science students; participation in facilitated groups; participation in a biomedical sciences seminar series. The program is designed for students to develop solid skills in mathematics, the sciences, and the English language to support high academic achievement in demanding undergraduate majors and masters programs in the natural and behavioral sciences. Student development activities involve collaboration between Cal State LA, UCLA, UC Irvine UC San Diego, and the University of Southern California. With the expectation that participants would be realistically motivated to careers in the biomedical sciences through interaction with academic and industrial biomedical scientists, and participation in solid research experiences; and be well- prepared for the transition from undergraduates and masters students to Ph.D. study.
