View Award Description

G-RISE at UMBC - PROJECT SUMMARY The purpose of this application is to obtain funding to support 36 doctoral trainees per year in participating departments/programs at UMBC (Biology, Biochemistry, Chemistry, Chemical, Biochemical and Environmental Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Computer Science and Electrical Engineering, Physics and Psychology). The G-RISE trainee pool will include students who are underrepresented in STEM fields; specifically, racial and ethnic minorities, and students with disabilities. The specific measurable outcomes are to (1) maintain high enrollment and retention rates in the program, (2) increase research productivity, (3) improve performance in core competencies, (4) enhance career readiness, (5) promote an inclusive research environment, and (6) increase faculty participation in G-RISE activities. G-RISE at UMBC will provide comprehensive financial support in years 1 and 2. Competitive funding can be obtained in year 3 of the program based on the assessment of mentor/mentee proposals to advance research while enabling the trainee to acquire skills and experience relevant to career interests. Students will be recruited regionally and nationally through outreach activities, participation in recruitment events, social media presence, and presentations at scientific conferences. Recruitment will be carried out in a holistic manner, as a joint effort between the participating departments and the G-RISE team. Retention, which is already very high, will be maintained at current levels. The G-RISE program will enhance career development through individualized mentoring. Trainees will enroll in the required Summer Bridge to enhance writing skills and facilitate transition into graduate school. Trainees will also complete a course on the Responsible Conduct of Research and attend several workshops: career exposure, grant-writing, quantitative skills, and transition into the workplace. They will also participate in community-building activities, monthly meetings, and annual retreats. In addition, trainees will have the opportunity to carry out elective, hands-on training and take on additional coursework to prepare them for careers of interest. Faculty mentors will be expected to participate in mentor training and G-RISE- sponsored activities that seek to promote an inclusive environment. The efficacy of the program will be monitored regularly by analysis of performance and trainee and alumni surveys.
