SUNY LSAMP 2016 Bridge to the Doctorate (BD) Cohort 5 at Stony Brook University

路易斯·斯托克斯少数民族参与联盟（LSAMP）项目帮助大学和学院通过努力显著增加历史上代表性不足的少数民族人口的学生数量，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通往博士学位的桥梁（LSAMP- bd）活动为历史上代表性不足的少数民族人口的学生提供为期两年的学士学位水平的支持，以进入STEM研究生课程，最终目标是获得STEM学科的博士学位。参与者是从全国LSAMP机构中挑选出来的。位于石溪大学的纽约州立大学路易斯·斯托克斯少数民族参与联盟（SUNY LSAMP）是2016-2018年BD项目的主办地点，在该项目中，从国家人库中选出的12名LSAMP认证的学生将从事STEM研究、学术和专业发展活动，从而完成STEM硕士和博士学位。石溪大学的BD项目提供了一套全面的支持服务，监测学生的进步，建立一个强大的BD社区，并提高BD学生的学术和专业技能。自2006年以来，已有十批学生进入纽约州立大学石溪分校、布法罗分校、宾厄姆顿分校和奥尔巴尼分校的LSAMP研究生LSAMP- bd项目。这些项目促进了研究生教育实践和政策的系统性变革，以提高个别学生在博士道路上的成功和STEM研究生课程的有效性，继续实现美国STEM劳动力多样化的目标。石溪大学的项目将进行外部评估，学生将在整个项目中进行跟踪，并在完成STEM博士学位课程后进入STEM职业。与国家内外的其他STEM网络和资源以及其他研究生课程（如NSF的研究生研究奖学金计划（GRFP），研究生教育和教授联盟（AGEP-T）和机构资源）的合作将进一步确保学生完成STEM最终学位。

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 postbaccalaurate 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 State University of New York System Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (SUNY LSAMP) at Stony Brook University is the host site for the 2016-2018 BD program in which a cohort of twelve LSAMP certified students selected from the national pool will engage in STEM research, academics and professional development activities leading to STEM Master's and Doctoral degree completion. The BD program at Stony Brook University provides a comprehensive set of support services that monitors student progress, builds a strong BD community, and increases BD students' academic and professional skills. Ten cohorts of students have matriculated in SUNY LSAMP graduate LSAMP-BD programs at Stony Brook, Buffalo, Binghamton and Albany since 2006. 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. The program at Stony Brook University will be externally evaluated and students will be tracked throughout the program and into STEM careers following completion of STEM doctoral degree programs. Collaborations with other STEM networks and resources internal and external to the state as well as other graduate programs, such as NSF's Graduate Research Fellowship Program (GRFP), Alliances for Graduate Education and the Professoriate (AGEP-T) and institutional resources will further ensure that students complete the STEM terminal degree.
