The United States has traditionally been a global leader in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM), and as a means to address the national need for the U.S. to remain globally competitive in the STEM disciplines, the inclusion of an untapped pool of creative, talented, and intelligent students historically underrepresented in STEM who earn a Ph.D. is warranted. Jackson State University (JSU), a Historically Black University, has a strong track record for preparing primarily African-American graduate students in biology, chemistry, mathematics, environmental science, computer science, and engineering for STEM doctoral degrees. To date, JSU's Bridge to the Doctorate (BD) program has produced 34 Ph.D. graduates from underrepresented groups and 139 BD Fellows have been admitted into doctoral programs. Through their BD program, JSU will provide well-qualified and diverse faculty members for U.S. universities and colleges, as well as impact the number of scientists, mathematicians, and engineers holding the doctorate and entering the workforce. Jackson State University will execute a BD program that is based upon rich and challenging research and academic experiences, the development and implementation of an independent development plan (IDP), professional long term goals and objectives, the utilization of STEM summer extramural research internship experiences at potential graduate school sites for the BD Fellows' targeted Ph.D. program, and an international research experience. The BD program has four objectives that are focused on 1) research and academic preparation, 2) enrichment activities, 3) national and international partnerships, and, 4) evaluation and student tracking. These activities along with sufficient financial support from the Louis Stokes Mississippi Alliance for Minority Participation (LSMAMP) program, rigorous curricula, and committed mentoring will enable their BD program to continue to reach their goal which is to prepare and increase the quality and quantity of students historically underrepresented in STEM entering the Ph.D. pipeline.

美国传统上一直是科学，技术，工程和数学（STEM）的全球领导者，并作为解决美国在STEM学科中保持全球竞争力的国家需求的一种手段，包括一个未开发的创造性，有才华和聪明的学生群体，这些学生在STEM中的代表性历来不足，他们获得博士学位。是有根据的 杰克逊州立大学（JSU）是一所历史悠久的黑人大学，在为生物学、化学、数学、环境科学、计算机科学和工程学的非裔美国研究生攻读STEM博士学位方面有着良好的记录。迄今为止，JSU的桥梁博士（BD）计划已经产生了34博士。来自代表性不足群体的毕业生和139名BD研究员已被录取进入博士课程。通过他们的BD计划，JSU将为美国大学和学院提供合格和多样化的教师，并影响持有博士学位和进入劳动力市场的科学家，数学家和工程师的数量。杰克逊州立大学将执行一项BD计划，该计划基于丰富而具有挑战性的研究和学术经验，独立发展计划（IDP）的制定和实施，专业的长期目标和目的，在潜在的研究生院网站利用STEM夏季校外研究实习经验，为BD研究员的目标博士学位。项目，以及国际研究经验。 BD计划有四个目标，重点是1）研究和学术准备，2）丰富活动，3）国家和国际合作伙伴关系，以及，4）评估和学生跟踪。这些活动沿着从路易斯·斯托克斯密西西比少数民族参与联盟（LSMAMP）计划，严格的课程，并承诺辅导足够的财政支持将使他们的BD计划继续达到他们的目标，这是准备和提高学生的质量和数量历史上代表性不足的干进入博士学位。渠道.
