Factors associated with applying to graduate/professional degrees for students engaged in undergraduate research experiences at minority serving institutions
Findings indicate that organized programs in biomedical research training significantly increase the probability of students applying to graduate or professional programs when programs span more than 12 months. This has implications for the design and implementation of biomedical research training programs, especially at MSIs.
