UTSA MARC U*STAR PROGRAM

超出所提供的空间。德克萨斯大学圣安东尼奥分校（UTSA）请求NIH/NIGMS支持继续其成功的少数民族获得研究职业（MARC）计划，现在被命名为MARC本科生学术研究培训（MARC U*STAR）计划。新的UTSA MARC U*STAR计划将包括加强和新的学生发展活动，旨在提高代表性不足的少数民族学生进入并完成高级（博士或专业/博士结合）学位的学术和研究准备，从而导致生物医学科学的研究事业。UTSA MARC U*STAR计划的主要目标是显著增加未被充分代表的少数民族学生进入并完成生物医学科学高级（博士或专业/博士结合）学位课程的人数和比率。这一目标将通过实施(1)加强校内和校外研究培训经验，(2)加强和新的研究职业和专业发展活动，(3)加强MARC U*STAR课程和学术丰富活动，以及(4)开发新的Pre-MARC U*STAR计划，旨在吸引、培养和鼓励有才华的大一和大二少数民族学生从事生物医学研究事业。预计这些活动将显著提高UTSA未被充分代表的少数民族学生的学术地位，促进他们对生物医学研究的兴趣，并扩大有竞争力的少数民族学生选择攻读高级（博士学位或专业/博士学位相结合）学位，从而从事生物医学研究事业。要测试的假设是，积极主动的指导、指导、培养、学术和研究培训和支持，将显著增加UTSA代表性不足的少数民族学生选择攻读高级学位和生物医学研究职业的人数。UTSA拥有优质的学生，教师，学术和研究项目和设施，已经准备好并渴望接受这一挑战。网站性能 ======================================== 节结束 ===========================================

EXCEED THE SPACE PROVIDED. The University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) requests NIH/NIGMS support to continue its successful Minority Access to Research Careers (MARC) Program, now named the MARC Undergraduate Student Training in Academic Research (MARC U*STAR) Program. The new UTSA MARC U*STAR Program will include enhanced and new student development activities designed to improve the academic and research preparedness of underrepresented minority students to enter and complete advanced (Ph.D. or combined professional/Ph.D.) degrees leading to research careers in the biomedical sciences. The main goal of the UTSA MARC U*STAR Program is to significantly increase the number and rate ofUTSA underrepresented minority students entering and completing advanced (Ph.D. or combined professional/Ph.D.) degree programs in the biomedical sciences. This goal will be accomplished by implementing (1) enhanced intramural and extramural research training experiences, (2) enhanced and new research career and professional development activities, (3) enhanced MARC U*STAR curriculum and academic enrichment activities, and (4) development of a new Pre-MARC U*STAR Program designed to attract, nurture, and encourage talented freshman and sophomore underrepresented minority students to pursue biomedical research careers. It is expected that these activities will significantly increase the academic standing of UTSA underrepresented minority students, promote their interest in biomedical research, and expand the pool of competitive minority students electing to pursue advanced (Ph.D. or combined professional/Ph.D.) degrees leading to biomedicalresearch careers. The hypothesis to be tested is that proactive mentoring, guidance, nurturing, and academic and research training and support, will signficantly increase the number of UTSA underrepresented minority students electing to pursue advanced degrees and biomedical research careers. The UTSA, with quality students, faculty, and academic and research programs and facilities, is ready and eager to undertake this challenge.
