The University of California System Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (CAMP) will sponsor its 6th Bridge to the Doctorate Program (BD)at the University of California at Santa Cruz (UCSC). This cohort of 12 students from underrepresented minority populations in science, technology, engineering, technology, and mathematics (STEM) will increase the number of talented students who will obtain doctoral degrees in the STEM disciplines. Upon completion, these Ph.D. graduates will either enter the technical workforce or choose a career in academia becoming role models for other URM students in the future.The program will build on the experiences gathered from previous BD cohorts at other University of California System campuses (Los Angeles, Irvine, San Diego, Davis, Santa Barbara). Students and faculty will engage in a focused program of intensive mentoring, communication skills and professional development to prepare participants for a highly competitive doctoral environment and ultimately for academic research positions. Broad institutional support will be provided through the Division of Physical and Biological Sciences, the Jack Baskin School of Engineering, the Division of Graduate Studies, and the Office of the Chancellor.By increasing the success of underrepresented graduate students, the program will create a stronger campus wide research environment that welcomes diverse approaches to scientific discovery. UCSC will disseminate the results of this initiative within the University and through a diverse array of publications and presentations at national venues in order to advance the understanding of the necessary components to achieve success in STEM academic careers.The long-term impact of the BD activity will be reflected in America's STEM workforce, both in academia and in industrial research and development. By nurturing the future professoriate, as well as the scientific workforce, the value added will be seen in the visibility of minorities in science and engineering, increasing representation and providing role models and motivation for the next generation.

加州大学系统路易斯·斯托克斯少数民族参与联盟(CAMP)将在加州大学圣克鲁斯分校(UCSC)赞助其第六个通往博士学位的桥梁项目(BD)。这12名学生来自科学、技术、工程、技术和数学(STEM)中代表性较低的少数民族人口，这将增加获得STEM学科博士学位的有才华的学生的数量。完成后，这些博士毕业生要么进入技术劳动力大军，要么选择在学术界工作，成为未来其他URM学生的榜样。该项目将建立在加州大学其他系统校区(洛杉矶、欧文、圣地亚哥、戴维斯、圣巴巴拉)之前的BD队列中收集的经验基础上。学生和教职员工将参与一个集中指导、沟通技能和专业发展的重点项目，为参与者进入竞争激烈的博士环境并最终进入学术研究职位做好准备。该计划将通过物理和生物科学部、杰克·巴斯金工程学院、研究生部和校长办公室提供广泛的机构支持。通过增加代表性不足的研究生的成功，该计划将创造一个更强大的校园范围的研究环境，欢迎不同的科学发现方法。UCSC将在大学内部以及通过各种出版物和在国家场所的演讲来传播这一倡议的成果，以促进对STEM学术生涯取得成功的必要组成部分的了解。BD活动的长期影响将反映在美国STEM劳动力中，无论是在学术界还是在工业研究和开发中。通过培养未来的教授以及科学劳动力，所增加的价值将体现在科学和工程领域的少数族裔的可见度中，增加代表性，并为下一代提供榜样和动力。
