This article describes the 6-week Health Careers Enhancement Program for Minorities inaugurated in the summer of 1988 at Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine. The program was developed for minority and economically disadvantaged college undergraduates and postbaccalaureate premedical students. Its major objectives were to stimulate and maintain the interest of minority students in health careers and prepare these students for entry into health professions and for successful completion of these programs. A unique aspect of the program was academic outreach. Case Western Reserve University minority alumni and community minority physicians participated as clinical role models, mentors, and teachers; community and state minority leaders served as inspirational speakers and role models. The program was designed not only to incorporate cognitive and skill development activities, but to also include features distinctive to the Case Western Reserve University curriculum, specifically, organ system teaching, preceptor groups, medical apprenticeship program, and student tutors.
本文介绍了1988年夏天在凯斯西储大学医学院启动的为期6周的少数族裔健康职业提升项目。该项目是为少数族裔和经济上处于不利地位的大学本科生以及本科后医学预科学生开发的。其主要目标是激发和保持少数族裔学生对健康职业的兴趣，并为这些学生进入健康专业领域并成功完成这些项目做好准备。该项目的一个独特之处在于学术推广。凯斯西储大学的少数族裔校友和社区少数族裔医生作为临床榜样、导师和教师参与其中；社区和州少数族裔领袖担任励志演讲者和榜样。该项目不仅设计了认知和技能发展活动，还融入了凯斯西储大学课程特有的特色，特别是器官系统教学、导师小组、医学学徒项目和学生导师。
