California State University Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation Program, Phase III nitiated in 1994, the California State University-Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation Program (CSU-LSAMP) is a comprehensive, statewide program dedicated to increasing the number of students from underrepresented minority groups (URM) graduating from campuses of the California State University (CSU) with baccalaureate degrees in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines. The CSU-AMP Alliance includes 47 public postsecondary institutions: 19 CSU campuses plus 28 California Community Colleges (CCC). With past NSF support, CSU-LSAMP contributed substantially to broadening participation of underrepresented groups in STEM disciplines. If the annual number of STEM degrees awarded to URM students had remained at the 1993 pre-CSU-LSAMP baseline of 750, the total number of degrees awarded between 1994-95 and 2001-02 would have been 6000. Instead, a total of 11,601 degrees were awarded over the past eight-year period, an increase of 5,601 URM-STEM degrees. The potential for CSU-LSAMP to further increase overall participation of URM students in STEM is strengthened by projections for changes in the number and proportion of URM students graduating from California public high schools. In Phase III, CSU-LSAMP proposes to engage approximately 2,000 URM students/year in activities that sustain or further improve individual student retention and progression rates achieved during Phase I and Phase II, and proposes to increase the number of URM-STEM degrees awarded from the 2001-2002 level of 1,485 to 2,528 in 2007-2008. Hence, the CSU-LSAMP goal is to award over 1,000 more STEM baccalaureate degrees to URM students by the end of the project period. Since California Community Colleges enroll approximately 63% of college-going students in California, partnership activities that improve transfer rates are critical to achieving the degree production goal. Therefore, during Phase III, CSU-LSAMP will complete construction of .bridges. between CSU and CCC partners that facilitate student advancement through this critical decision point. Since many of the strategies initiated in Phase I and Phase II for lower division students have already been institutionalized, CSU-LSAMP will also introduce activities in Phase III that are designed to enhance graduate school preparedness of upper division students with the goal of improving aggregate student progression to STEM graduate programs. Phase III activities provided by each CSU campus will focus on four common objectives: (1) increasing transfer rates of URM students from the community colleges to STEM majors in the CSU; (2) enhancing first and second year retention rates and overall academic performance of URM students in STEM majors to levels comparable to levels for non-URM students; (3) enhancing performance of URM students in math and science courses; and (4) increasing the number of URM students interested in pursuing graduate study in STEM disciplines, and enhancing graduate school preparedness of upper division URM-STEM students. The types of activities that will be offered to support each objective have consistently been shown to facilitate retention and progression of URM students in STEM, and represent a set of well-established .best practices. for accomplishing the objectives. These activities include: course articulation between CSU and community colleges; individual transfer agreements with community college students; advising/orientation programs; peer mentoring; faculty mentoring; intensive summer or academic year programs designed to prepare students to excel in calculus courses; supplemental academic year workshops designed to enhance performance in specific math and science courses; graduate information workshops; AY or summer internships and research experiences; GRE preparation workshops; participation in scientific and professional conferences; interactions with other URM-STEM serving programs; and Interactions with URM-STEM serving prog ms at Ph.D. granting institutions.

加州州立大学路易斯·斯托克斯少数民族参与计划联盟，第三阶段于1994年启动，加州州立大学-路易斯·斯托克斯少数民族参与计划联盟（CSU-LSAMP）是一个全面的，全州范围内的计划，致力于增加从加州州立大学（CSU）的校园毕业的代表性不足的少数群体（URM）的学生人数，在科学，技术，工程和数学（STEM）学科。CSU-AMP联盟包括47所公立中学后教育机构：19所CSU校区和28所加州社区学院（CCC）。 在过去的NSF支持下，CSU-LSAMP为扩大STEM学科中代表性不足的群体的参与做出了巨大贡献。 如果每年颁发给URM学生的STEM学位数量保持在1993年CSU-LSAMP之前的750个基线，则1994-95年至2001-02年间颁发的学位总数将达到6000个。 相反，在过去的八年里，共有11,601个学位被授予，增加了5,601个URM-STEM学位。CSU-LSAMP进一步提高URM学生在STEM中的整体参与的潜力，通过预测从加州公立高中毕业的URM学生的数量和比例的变化而得到加强。 在第三阶段，CSU-LSAMP建议每年约有2，000名URM学生参与维持或进一步提高第一阶段和第二阶段期间实现的个别学生保留率和升学率的活动，并建议将URM-STEM学位的数量从2001-2002年的1，485个增加到2007-2008年的2，528个。 因此，CSU-LSAMP的目标是在项目结束前向URM学生颁发1,000多个STEM学士学位。 由于加州社区学院招收了大约63%的加州大学在校学生，因此提高转学率的合作活动对于实现学位生产目标至关重要。 因此，在第三阶段，CSU-LSAMP将完成桥梁的建设。CSU和CCC合作伙伴之间的合作，通过这一关键的决定点，促进学生的进步。 由于在第一阶段和第二阶段为低年级学生发起的许多战略已经制度化，CSU-LSAMP还将在第三阶段引入旨在提高高年级学生的研究生院准备的活动，目标是提高学生向STEM研究生课程的总体进展。 第三阶段的活动由CSU各校区提供，将集中于四个共同目标：（1）提高URM学生从社区学院到CSU STEM专业的转学率;（2）提高URM学生在STEM专业的第一年和第二年的保留率和整体学业成绩，使其达到与非URM学生相当的水平;（3）提高URM学生在CSU STEM专业的第一年和第二年的保留率。（3）提高URM学生在数学和科学课程中的表现;（4）增加URM学生对STEM学科研究生学习感兴趣的人数，并提高URM-STEM学生的研究生院准备。 将提供支持每个目标的活动类型一直被证明有助于URM学生在STEM中的保留和进步，并代表了一套完善的最佳实践。为了实现目标。这些活动包括：CSU和社区学院之间的课程衔接;与社区学院学生的个人转让协议;咨询/定向计划;同行指导;教师指导;旨在帮助学生在微积分课程中脱颖而出的密集夏季或学年计划;旨在提高特定数学和科学课程表现的补充学年研讨会;研究生信息研讨会; AY或夏季实习和研究经验; GRE准备讲习班;参与科学和专业会议;与其他URM-STEM服务计划的互动;以及与博士的URM-STEM服务计划的互动。授予机构。
