The Oklahoma State University Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (OKAMP) Bridge to the Doctorate (BD) Program is a collaborative effort between the National Science Foundation and Oklahoma higher education institutions to increase the quality and quantity of underrepresented minorities, particularly students from Native American communities, matriculating to completion of the doctoral degree in science, technology, engineering and mathematics fields (STEM) fields. The program at Oklahoma State University (OSU)prepares students to meet the challenges of completing STEM doctoral programs of study and for academic careers in higher education. In addition, the program develops leadership skills necessary for success in the STEM workforce nationally and internationally. Integrating research and education, the BD fellows will be nurtured over two years as a cohorted community that will benefit from a program of academic and personal development activities as well as social support to sustain their commitment and success to the terminal Ph.D. STEM degree. Program activities include linkages to the Oklahoma Experimental Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (OK-EPSCoR), the NIH Native Americans in Biological Sciences (NABS) program, as well as other NSF-funded research and education projects, including programs that provide mentoring opportunities for undergraduate students. A total of 12 students from underrepresented minority populations in STEM fields will participate in the program at Oklahoma State University during the 2009-2010 academic years. Results from this support will broaden the participation of Native Americans, Hispanics, African-Americans and Pacific-Islanders in the STEM pipeline for the U. S. workforce and abroad. Results from rigorous evaluation of the project will add to the body of literature in the recruitment and retention of underrepresented minority students in STEM fields.

俄克拉荷马州立大学路易斯·斯托克斯少数民族参与联盟(OKAMP)博士学位(BD)项目是美国国家科学基金会和俄克拉荷马州高等教育机构合作的项目，旨在提高少数族裔，特别是来自美洲原住民社区的学生的质量和数量，直到完成科学、技术、工程和数学领域(STEM)的博士学位。俄克拉荷马州立大学(OSU)的这一项目为学生准备迎接完成STEM博士课程和在高等教育中从事学术生涯的挑战。此外，该项目还培养在国内和国际STEM员工队伍中取得成功所必需的领导技能。结合研究和教育，BD研究员将在两年内被培养为一个队列社区，将受益于一项学术和个人发展活动以及社会支持计划，以维持他们对末期博士学位的承诺和成功。计划活动包括与俄克拉荷马州刺激竞争研究实验计划(OK-EPSCoR)、NIH生物科学原住民计划(NABS)以及其他由NSF资助的研究和教育项目的联系，包括为本科生提供指导机会的计划。在2009-2010学年，俄克拉何马州立大学将有12名来自STEM领域未被充分代表的少数族裔的学生参加该项目。这种支持的结果将扩大美洲原住民、西班牙裔、非裔美国人和太平洋岛民在美国劳动力和海外STEM管道中的参与。对该项目进行严格评估的结果将增加关于招收和留住STEM领域中代表性不足的少数族裔学生的文献。
