Texas A&M University System?s (TAMUS) Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (LSAMP) Bridge to the Doctorate (BD) Program is a collaborative effort between the National Science Foundation the TAMU College of Science and the College of Engineering. The program prepares students to meet the challenges of completing doctoral programs of study and for academic careers in higher education and develops leadership skills necessary to succeed as young students from underrepresented populations in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (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 NSF-funded Integrative Graduate Education in Research Training (IGERT) in the area of Next Generation Computations and Analytical Tools for Material Science and student mentoring opportunities under several undergraduate research and education projects. Leadership training, proposal writing and training in ethics are modules within the two-year fellowship program.A total of 12 students from underrepresented minority populations in STEM fields will participate in the program at Texas A&M University during the 2009-2010 academic years. Results from this support will broaden the participation of African-Americans, Hispanics, Native Americans, and Pacific-Islanders in the STEM pipeline, 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.

德州农工大学系统？路易斯·斯托克斯少数民族参与联盟（LSAMP）博士学位（BD）项目是国家科学基金会、TAMU科学学院和工程学院之间的合作项目。该计划为学生准备迎接完成研究博士课程和高等教育学术生涯的挑战，并培养必要的领导技能，使其成为来自科学，技术，工程和数学（STEM）劳动力中代表性不足的年轻学生。整合研究和教育，BD研究员将在两年多的时间里培养为一个共同的社区，该社区将受益于学术和个人发展活动计划以及社会支持，以维持他们对终端博士学位的承诺和成功。STEM学位。计划活动包括与NSF资助的研究培训综合研究生教育（IGERT）在下一代计算和材料科学分析工具领域的联系，以及几个本科研究和教育项目下的学生指导机会。 领导力培训、提案撰写和道德培训是两年奖学金计划中的模块。在2009-2010学年，共有12名来自STEM领域代表性不足的少数民族学生将参加德克萨斯州农工大学的该计划。 这一支持的结果将扩大非裔美国人、西班牙裔美国人、美洲原住民和太平洋岛民在STEM管道中的参与。S.劳动力和国外。 该项目的严格评估结果将增加在STEM领域招募和保留代表性不足的少数民族学生的文献。
