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 successfully completing high quality degree programs in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) disciplines. Particular emphasis is placed on transforming STEM education through innovative recruitment and retention strategies and experiences in support of groups historically under-represented in STEM disciplines: African-Americans, Alaskan Natives, American Indians, Hispanic Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Native Pacific Islanders. The Bridge to the Doctorate (BD) Activity provides support for postbaccalaureate studies in STEM programs leading to the STEM doctoral degree. The University of Georgia (UGA) is the host site for the 2017-2019 Bridge to the Doctorate (B2D) program for the Peach State Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (PSLAMP) under the leadership of University of Georgia. This is the first post-baccalaureate program at the institution that supports a graduate student cohort of 12 underrepresented minority (URM) STEM Ph.D. students from LSAMP campuses across the nation. The BD Activity provides extensive training in specific STEM disciplines as well as professional development and guidance that promote peer mentoring and leadership in the scientific community. Students receive rigorous academic and research training experiences that support completion of the Ph.D. and the transition to a competitive career in academia and industry. Over the duration of the project and beyond, the BD program at UGA serves to increase the number and quality of students from underrepresented groups completing STEM Ph.D. degrees and entering the STEM workforce. Formative and summative evaluation will occur with the summative evaluation including a comparison group to assess impact of the program interventions on student outcomes. The evaluation question asks: Are PSLAMP completers who participate in B2D more likely than PSLAMP completers who do not participate in B2D to complete doctoral degrees in STEM disciplines?The long-term impact of the BD activity is reflected in America's STEM workforce, both in academia and in industrial research and development. By nurturing future STEM leaders, the value added is seen in the visibility of underrepresented minorities in science and engineering, increasing representation and providing role models and motivation for the next generation.

路易斯·斯托克·斯托克（Louis Stoks）参加少数群体参与（LSAMP）计划（LSAMP）计划，通过他们的努力大大增加了成功完成科学，技术，工程和数学（STEM）学科的高质量学位课程的努力，帮助大学和学院多样化STEM劳动力。特别强调通过创新的招募和保留策略和经验来转变STEM教育，以支持STEM学科的历史不足的群体：非洲裔美国人，阿拉斯加人，美洲印第安人，美国印第安人，西班牙裔美国人，夏威夷原住民夏威夷人和太平洋岛民。通往博士学位（BD）活动的桥梁为导致STEM博士学位的STEM课程研究提供了支持。佐治亚大学（UGA）是佐治亚大学领导下的桃子州路易斯·斯托克斯联盟（Louis Stokes Alliance）的2017 - 2019年桃子州路易斯·斯托克斯联盟（Louis Stokes）联盟（PSLAMP）的2017 - 2019年桥梁。这是该机构的第一个学会后计划，该计划支持12个代表性不足的少数民族（URM）STEM博士学位。来自全国LSAMP校园的学生。 BD活动为特定的STEM学科以及专业发展和指导提供了广泛的培训，从而促进了科学界的同伴指导和领导。学生获得严格的学术和研究培训经验，以支持博士学位的完成。以及在学术界和工业中的竞争职业的过渡。在整个项目及其他期间，UGA的BD计划可提高填写STEM博士学位的代表性不足小组的学生的数量和质量。学位并进入STEM劳动力。 总结性评估将进行形成性和总结性评估，包括一个比较组，以评估计划干预对学生结果的影响。 评估问题提出：与不参加B2D的PSLAMP完成者相比，参加B2D的PSLAMP完成者是否更有可能在STEM学科中完成博士学位？BD活动的长期影响反映在美国STEM劳动力中，无论是在学术界和工业研究和开发中。通过培养未来的STEM领导者，可以看到该增值在科学和工程领域的人数不足的知名度，增加了代表性，并为下一代提供了榜样和动力。
