Program Summary Over the past three years of Phase II of the Washington-Baltimore-Hampton Roads Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (WBHR-LSAMP), three new state-based institutions were added. The original four partners for Phase I included Howard University (HU), Hampton University (HAU), Morgan State University (MSU) and the University of the District of Columbia (UDC). The new Phase II partners included Bowie State University (BSU), Norfolk State University (NSU) and Virginia State University (VSU). The addition of these three partners expanded the diversity of student populations served by the WBHR-LSAMP programs as well as expanding the numbers of programs available to students enrolled in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) within the Alliance. Intellectual and Technical Merit The principal objective for Phase III of the WBHR-LSAMP Alliance is to continue to institutionalize the . best practices. and . lesson-learned. from Phases I and II of the Alliance and to build the necessary instructional and research infrastructure that will ensure the successful progression and transition of undergraduate students towards B.S., M.S and Ph.D. degrees in STEM fields. The specific objectives for Phase III are to: Provide direct support for junior and senior-level students in order that they can successfully transition into graduate programs in STEM fields and ultimately replace the graying. professoriate in major research universities and the scientists and engineers at national and industrial laboratories. To develop seamless relationships and partnerships with major research universities so that students within the WBHR-LSAMP programs completing B.S. and M.S. degree programs can continue their graduate work with joint mentoring by professors at WBHR-LSAMP institutions and those offering Ph.Ds by .building bridges for the doctorates.. To build synergistic research efforts for all STEM students so that institutionalization of the WBHR-LSAMP initiatives will become permanent mechanisms for degree production at all levels in the postsecondary educational pipeline. Broader Impact Based on the trendline data, more than 7,500 African Americans have received B.S. degrees in STEM fields from this WBHR-LSAMP Alliance over the past 10 years and approximately 30 percent or 2,200 of these students have gone on to enroll in graduate degree programs and have received M.S. and Ph.D. degrees as well as other professional degrees. The WBHR-LSAMP has documented evidence that the LSAMP students are more likely to return to HBCUs than other students. It is also clear by the number of Ph.Ds produced within the WBHR-LSAMP institutions, as well as the number of new assistant professors who have been hired within the WBHR-LSAMP Alliance, that the impact of the WBHR-LSAMP Alliance is not just within the alliance, but the impact is national as well as global. We believe that that quality of African American students attending institutions within the WBHR-LSAMP alliance is among the highest in the United States. Furthermore, the establishment of new research partnerships will have as its foundation the establishments of doctoral.level research at WBHR-LSAMP institutions. The combination of improved instructional and research facilities at WBHR-LSAMP Institutions will have synergistic affects and benefits for all of the WBHR-LSAMP institutions, as well as the major research institutions that become research partners. In particular, students participating in collaborative research benefit because they can be actively involved in a comprehensive approach to research and development that is typically difficult to achieve in smaller focused research groups such as those normally found in HBCUs and MIs where research resources are usually limited.

计划摘要在过去三年中，华盛顿-巴尔的摩-汉普顿路易-斯托克斯少数民族参与联盟(WBHR-LSAMP)第二阶段增加了三个以州为基础的机构。第一阶段最初的四个合作伙伴包括霍华德大学(HU)、汉普顿大学(HAU)、摩根州立大学(MSU)和哥伦比亚特区大学(UDC)。新的第二阶段合作伙伴包括鲍伊州立大学(BSU)、诺福克州立大学(NSU)和弗吉尼亚州立大学(VSU)。这三个伙伴的加入扩大了WBHR-LSAMP项目服务的学生群体的多样性，并扩大了联盟内注册的科学、技术、工程和数学(STEM)学生可获得的项目数量。知识和技术方面的优点世界卫生组织-LSAMP联盟第三阶段的主要目标是继续使其制度化。最佳实践。而且.。教训--吸取教训。从联盟的第一和第二阶段开始，并建立必要的教学和研究基础设施，以确保本科生成功地取得STEM领域的理学士、理科硕士和博士学位。第三阶段的具体目标是：为初级和高级学生提供直接支持，使他们能够成功过渡到STEM领域的研究生课程，并最终取代老龄化。在主要研究型大学担任教授，在国家和工业实验室担任科学家和工程师。与主要研究型大学发展无缝关系和伙伴关系，以便WBHR-LSAMP项目中完成学士和硕士学位项目的学生可以在WBHR-LSAMP机构的教授和那些提供博士学位的人的联合指导下继续他们的研究生工作，为博士学位搭建桥梁。为所有STEM学生建立协同研究工作，使WBHR-LSAMP倡议的制度化将成为高等教育渠道中各级学位产生的永久机制。更广泛的影响根据趋势线的数据，在过去的10年里，超过7500名非裔美国人从WBHR-LSAMP联盟获得了STEM领域的理科学士学位，其中约30%，即2200名学生继续攻读研究生学位课程，获得了硕士和博士学位以及其他专业学位。WBHR-LSAMP记录了LSAMP学生比其他学生更有可能回到HBCU的证据。从WBHR-LSAMP机构内产生的博士数量以及WBHR-LSAMP联盟内聘用的新助理教授数量也可以清楚地看出，WBHR-LSAMP联盟的影响不仅在联盟内，而且在国家和全球范围内都有影响。我们认为，在WBHR-LSAMP联盟内的机构就读的非裔美国学生的质量是美国最高的之一。此外，建立新的研究伙伴关系的基础将是在世界卫生组织--LSAMP机构建立博士水平的研究。WBHR-LSAMP机构改进的教学和研究设施的结合将对WBHR-LSAMP的所有机构以及成为研究伙伴的主要研究机构产生协同影响和好处。参与合作研究的学生尤其受益，因为他们可以积极参与研究和开发的综合方法，这在规模较小的重点研究小组中通常很难实现，例如那些通常在HBCU和MIS中找到的小组，那里的研究资源通常有限。
