Iowa Biosciences Advantage, UI College of Medicine

The mission of the Iowa Biosciences Advantage (IBA) program is to identify academically talented undergraduate underrepresented minority students with aspirations for a research career and provide them with first-rate training that will facilitate their entry into doctoral programs in the biomedical, behavioral, and biophysical sciences.

Department of Mathematics, The University of Iowa

The Department of Mathematics at the University of Iowa graduates the largest number of US underrepresented minority PhDs in Mathematics in the country, producing over 10% of the total. In my remarks I will briefly outlined how our faculty led community building focus has led to the success of our program. I will also discuss expansion of our efforts to other programs, through, for example, AGEP.
