The Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority Participation (LSAMP) program assists universities and colleges in diversifying the STEM workforce through their efforts at significantly increasing the numbers of students from historically underrepresented minority populations to successfully complete high quality degree programs in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) disciplines. The LSAMP Bridge to the Doctorate (LSAMP-BD) activity provides two-year support at the post baccalaureate level for students from historically underrepresented minority populations to matriculate in STEM graduate programs with the ultimate goal of earning a doctoral degree in a STEM discipline. Participants are selected from LSAMP institutions nationwide. The Florida-Georgia Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (Florida-Georgia LSAMP), under the leadership of Florida A & M University, a Historically Black College/University (HBCU), has chosen Florida International University (FIU), a Hispanic-serving institution (HSI) as the host for the 2015-2017 BD program in which a cohort of twelve LSAMP BD students will engage in STEM research, academics and professional development leading to completion of the STEM terminal degree. The programs promote systemic change in graduate education practices and policy in ways that increase the success of individual students on the doctoral pathway and the effectiveness of STEM graduate programs continuing the goal of diversifying America's STEM workforce.Twelve cohorts of students have matriculated in the Florida-Georgia LSAMP BD programs at the following sites: Florida State University, University of South Florida, University of Florida and Florida International University since 2003. For the 2015-2017 cohorts, the host of the Florida-Georgia LSAMP BD program will be Florida International University. The program includes collaborations and linkages with other STEM networks and resources as well as other graduate programs, such as NSF's Graduate Research Fellowship Program (GRFP) and other regional LSAMP-supported graduate education programs. The BD program at FIU provides a comprehensive set of support services that monitors student progress, builds a strong BD community, and increases BD students' academic and professional skills. Institutional resources are committed to ensure participants' successful completion of the STEM doctoral degree. This BD program will be externally evaluated and students will be tracked throughout its duration and into STEM careers following completion of STEM doctoral degree programs.

Louis Stokes少数族裔参与联盟(LSAMP)计划帮助大学和学院通过努力显著增加来自历史上代表性不足的少数族裔的学生数量，成功完成科学、技术、工程和数学(STEM)学科的高质量学位课程，使STEM劳动力多样化。LSAMP通向博士学位之桥(LSAMP-BD)活动为来自历史上代表性不足的少数族裔群体的学生提供为期两年的文凭后支持，让他们进入STEM研究生课程，最终目标是获得STEM学科的博士学位。参与者是从LSAMP全国各地的机构中挑选出来的。佛罗里达-佐治亚州路易斯·斯托克斯少数民族参与联盟(佛罗里达-佐治亚州LSAMP)在佛罗里达农工大学(HBCU)的领导下，选择了佛罗里达国际大学(FIU)作为2015-2017年BD项目的东道主。FIU是一所为拉美裔服务的机构(HSI)，在该项目中，12名LSAMP BD学生将从事STEM研究、学术和专业发展，以完成STEM终端学位。这些计划促进了研究生教育实践和政策的系统性变化，从而提高了个别学生在博士道路上的成功，并提高了STEM研究生计划的有效性，继续实现了美国STEM劳动力多样化的目标。自2003年以来，已有12名学生在佛罗里达-佐治亚州LSAMP BD计划的下列地点入学：佛罗里达州立大学、南佛罗里达大学、佛罗里达大学和佛罗里达国际大学。2015-2017学年，佛罗里达-佐治亚州LSAMP BD项目的主持人将是佛罗里达国际大学。该计划包括与其他STEM网络和资源以及其他研究生计划的合作和联系，如NSF的研究生研究奖学金计划(GRFP)和其他由LSAMP支持的地区性研究生教育计划。FIU的BD项目提供了一套全面的支持服务，以监控学生的进步，建立一个强大的BD社区，并提高BD学生的学术和专业技能。机构资源致力于确保学员成功完成STEM博士学位。该BD项目将接受外部评估，学生将在整个过程中进行跟踪，并在完成STEM博士学位课程后进入STEM职业生涯。
