Attachment 13:
Student Annual
Follow-up Survey

Public reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to vary from 25
to 45 minutes per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching
existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and
reviewing the collection of information. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a
person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number. Send comments regarding this burden estimate
or any other aspect of this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing
this burden, to: NIH, Project Clearance Branch, 6705 Rockledge Drive, MSC 7974,
Bethesda, MD 20892-7974, ATTN: PRA (0925-0747). Do not return the completed form
to this address.

You have been selected to be a part of the Enhance Diversity Study, a national study on student
experiences and career choices. Your school is part of this study, sponsored by the Diversity
Program Consortium, a major national initiative funded by the National Institutes of Health. This
study will help us identify the best strategies to support and encourage success for the next
generation of students from diverse backgrounds in science and research.
The University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) serves as the coordinating center for this
national effort and is in charge of collecting information about the experiences and career
choices of a variety of students such as you. The information you provide on the survey will
allow the investigators at UCLA and at your school and the other members of the Diversity
Program Consortium to understand how well students are prepared for and succeeding in
biomedical research careers.
Your school has provided UCLA your name and contact information. You may have previously
contributed to this effort by completing one of the national student surveys offered at your
institution this past academic year or completing one of our surveys in the past. By taking this
survey, you are giving permission for your school to share information from your student record
such as demographics, the courses you take, and the grades you receive in your courses with
the UCLA team. You are also giving the UCLA team permission to share the information you
provide on the survey with your institution for their review of local programs and to allow UCLA
to contact you every year or so for follow-up surveys to understand your career choices after
you leave your school. Only with the continued participation and support of students such
as yourself will we be able to show the value of the various programs offered through
your institution to help students such as yourself succeed. All of the information you
provide is protected by a federal Certificate of Confidentiality.
In this survey, we will ask you about publications and grants. You have the option to upload a
document that includes such information (such as a resume or curriculum vitae) instead of
entering this information directly for each publication or grant in the survey.

Mentoring
This next section concerns your experiences with mentoring in a variety of contexts.
A mentor is someone who provides guidance, assistance, and encouragement on
professional and academic issues. A mentor can be either someone who is more
experienced (or senior) than you or someone who is at an educational or professional
level similar to you (a “peer”).
A mentee is someone who receives guidance or assistance from a mentor. A mentee can
be someone less experienced (or junior) than you or someone who is your peer.
A mentoring relationship can be formal (with a set schedule and perhaps arranged by your
institution) or informal.
21. DMTECS First, we would like to ask you about a mentor who is senior to you. Do you have
a faculty member or someone else who is more senior than you whom you consider a mentor?
No
Yes
I choose not to answer
In addition to having mentors who are senior to themselves, many people also have mentors
that are at a similar educational or professional level as themselves (a peer).
22. DMTECP Do you have someone at a similar educational or professional level as you (i.e., a
peer) whom you consider an academic/career mentor?
No
Yes
I choose not to answer
Now we would like to ask you about any mentoring that you do.
23. DMTRCJ Do you have anyone who you currently mentor about academic issues who is
junior to you?
No

I choose not to answer
This next item focuses on people you mentor who are peers to you (at a similar educational and
professional level).
