LSAMP- Washington Baltimore Hampton Roads Alliance (Senior-Level Alliance)

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联盟)由霍华德大学(HU)领导，摩根州立大学(MSU)、鲍伊州立大学(BSU)、哥伦比亚特区大学(UDC)、汉普顿大学(HAU)、诺福克州立大学(NSU)和弗吉尼亚州立大学(VSU)以及与这些HBCU相关的社区学院共同领导。华盛顿特区和弗吉尼亚州社区学院的参与包括：乔治王子？S社区学院、丹维尔社区学院、J.Sargeant Reynolds社区学院、霍华德社区、日耳曼纳社区学院、塞西尔学院、约翰·泰勒社区学院、弗吉尼亚南部社区学院在过去14年的华盛顿巴尔的摩汉普顿路-路易斯-斯托克斯少数族裔参与联盟(WBHR-LSAMP)计划中，所有WBHR-联盟机构都有重大的研究和教学基础设施建设；STEM学位课程的战略扩展；STEM的新课程；各级学位的增加；保留率的提高；在被引用的期刊上发表的技术论文数量显著增加；所有机构的进步和毕业率都有所提高；授予国家认可的奖学金，包括罗兹奖学金、惠普奖学金、NSF研究生奖学金；以及加强与主要研究机构、国家实验室和行业的合作。该项目将(1)将世界卫生组织可持续发展联盟的定位，将其最有效的干预措施纳入成员校园的机构运作，并在联盟内部和与其他主要研究机构建立持久的关系；(2)使学生对STEM研究生学习感兴趣并为他们做好准备，将整个联盟的本科生的研究经验制度化，以及GRE教程、最先进的STEM研讨会和其他援助；(3)为社区大学的学生创造获得STEM学士学位的途径，将他们纳入WBHR-LSAMP暑期课程和学年课程，帮助他们转到WBHR-LSAMP机构的STEM理科学士学位课程，并确保他们成功完成STEM学位，为研究生学习或从事STEM职业做准备；(4)增加STEM学生参加本科生和研究生层面的国际研究经历的人数。该项目的结果预计将导致STEM理科学士学位增加5%，进入STEM研究生学习的少数族裔学生人数增加。

The WashingtonBaltimore-Hampton Roads Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (WBHR Alliance) is led by Howard University (HU) with Morgan State University (MSU), Bowie State University (BSU), the University of the District of Columbia (UDC), Hampton University (HAU), Norfolk State University (NSU) and Virginia State University (VSU) along with the community colleges associated with these HBCUs. Community college participation in the Washington, DC metropolitan area and Virginia include: Prince George?s Community College, Danville Community College, J. Sargeant Reynolds Community College, Howard Community, Germanna Community College, Cecil College, John Tyler Community College, Southside Virginia Community College Over the past fourteen years of the Washington Baltimore Hampton Roads-Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (WBHR-LSAMP) Program, there has been significant research and teaching infrastructure building at all of the WBHR-Alliance Institutions; strategic expansion of STEM degree offerings at the BS, MS, and Ph.D. levels; new courses in STEM; increased degree production at all levels; improved retention; significant increase in the number of technical publications in refereed journals; progression and graduation rate increases at all institution; awards of nationally recognized fellowships including the Rhodes Scholarship, Hewlett Packard Fellowship, NSF graduate fellowship; and increased collaboration with major research institutions, national laboratories, and industry. This project will (1) position the WBHR-Alliance for sustainability by integrating its most effective interventions into the institutional operations at member campuses, and by building enduring relationships within the Alliance and with other major research institutions; (2) interest students in and prepare them well for STEM graduate study, institutionalize research experiences for undergraduates throughout the alliance, along with GRE tutorials, state-of-the-art STEM seminars, and other assistance; (3) create pathways to a STEM baccalaureate for students at community colleges, by including them in WBHR-LSAMP summer programs and academic-year courses, facilitating their transfer into STEM B.S. programs at WBHR-LSAMP institutions, and ensuring their successful completion of the STEM degree, ready for graduate study or a STEM career; (4) Increase the number of STEM students participating in international research experiences at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. The outcomes from this project are expected to result in a 5% increase in STEM B. S. degrees and an increase in students from underrepresented minority populations entering STEM graduate studies.
