The University of Georgia, lead institution for the Peach State Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (Peach State LSAMP) will continue successful practices in recruitment and retention to increase the representation of historically underrepresented minorities in science, technology, engineering and technology (STEM) fields. The 2011-2016 program will consist of a partnership with the following institutions: Fort Valley State University, Savannah State University, SouthernPolytechnic State University, Georgia Institute of Technology, Georgia Perimeter College and Kennesaw State University. Through close coordination with state-funded and other externally funded programs, such as the University System of Georgia STEM Initiative and NSF's Historically Black Colleges and Universities-Undergradute Program, the alliance contributed to significant achievements in broadening underrepresented minority STEM participation, providing targeted support to 1,135 PSLSAMP students. This program provides a stronger focus on key recruitment and retention strategies and a strengthened evaluation process, as well as a broadened research collaboration network. The substantially broadened state-wide presence along with stronger and more rigorous focus constitutes a program that will provide committed institutional support; strong administrative and faculty support; and targeted academic enrichment, proactive mentoring, and meaningful research opportunities for students. Building on the foundation developed in the last five years, the intended goals for the project are as follows: 1. Significantly increase minority STEM enrollment and baccalaureate degree completion; 2. Increase the percentage of LSAMP students who participate in STEM research or an externalinternship as an undergraduate student;3. Increase the percentage of LSAMP scholars who transfer to a 4-year institution after completingpartner two-year program;4. Increase the number of students who pursue STEM graduate programs.The best practices implemented in this project will have transferable values for STEMactivities in other institutions in the nation. It will also create an environment in which the outcomesachieved will be sustainable after the project comes to an end. This project will not only contribute toincreasing the number of URM students in STEM disciplines but also to increase the awareness for and tofoster the development of state-wide measures for accelerating diversity in STEM disciplines.

佐治亚大学，桃子州路易斯·斯托克斯少数群体参与（Peach State LSAMP）的首席机构将继续在招募和保留方面成功实践，以增加历史上代表性不足的科学，技术，工程，工程和技术（STEM）领域的代表。 2011-2016计划将包括与以下机构的合作伙伴关系：瓦尔利堡州立大学，萨凡纳州立大学，南方科技州立大学，佐治亚州理工学院，佐治亚州外围学院和肯尼索州立大学。通过与国家资助和其他外部资助的计划的密切协调，例如佐治亚大学STEM倡议系统和NSF历史上的黑人学院和大学较高的大学计划，该联盟为扩大代表性不足的少数族裔参与而取得了重大成就，从而为1,135个PSLSAMP学生提供了目标的支持。该计划更加重视关键招聘和保留策略，并加强评估过程以及扩大的研究协作网络。实质上扩大了全州范围内的存在以及更强大，更严格的焦点，构成了一项计划，该计划将提供坚定的机构支持；强有力的行政和教师支持；并为学生提供了学术丰富，积极的指导和有意义的研究机会。在过去五年中，该项目的预期目标如下：1。大大增加了少数族裔STEM入学率和学位学位的完成； 2。增加参加STEM研究或作为本科生外部工作的LSAMP学生的百分比； 3。在完成两年计划后，增加了转移到4年机构的LSAMP学者的百分比； 4。增加追求STEM研究生课程的学生人数。该项目实施的最佳实践将具有可转让的全国其他机构的STEMACATIES值。它还将创建一个环境，在该环境结束后，结果可持续的环境将是可持续的。该项目不仅将有助于促进STEM学科中的URM学生人数，而且还将提高人们对加速STEM学科多样性的措施的意识和制定。
