The Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority Participation (LSAMP) program assists universities and colleges in diversifying the STEM workforce through the development of highly competitive students from groups historically underrepresented in STEM disciplines: African-Americans, Alaska Natives, American Indians, Hispanic Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Native Pacific Islanders. The goal of the LSAMP Bridge to the Doctorate (BD) Activity is to increase the quantity and quality of STEM graduate students from underrepresented populations, with emphasis on Ph.D. matriculation and completion. BD programs implemented in the nation's institutions of higher education contribute to addressing one of the objectives in NSF's 2014-2018 Strategic Plan, namely to "integrate education and research to support development of a diverse STEM workforce with cutting-edge capabilities." The University of Oklahoma, a member institution of the Oklahoma LSAMP alliance (OK-AMP), proposes an integrated model of social supports and community networks to support the graduate education for 12 graduate students from underrepresented groups as Bridge to the Doctorate (BD) Fellows for two years.Bridge to the Doctorate: OK-LSAMP will integrate Social Cognitive Career Theory and Social Capital Theory into a research-based mentoring program for optimizing academic, personal, and professional development of 12 BD Fellows. The mentoring program focuses on helping Fellows develop multi-layered communities of support. The project seeks to institutionalize a culture that enhances the personal and professional development and improve retention to PhD for all STEM graduate students.

路易斯·斯托克斯少数民族参与联盟（LSAMP）计划帮助大学和学院通过培养具有高度竞争力的学生来实现STEM劳动力的多样化，这些学生来自历史上在STEM学科中代表性不足的群体：非洲裔美国人，阿拉斯加原住民，美洲印第安人，西班牙裔美国人，夏威夷原住民和太平洋岛民。LSAMP桥梁博士（BD）活动的目标是提高STEM研究生的数量和质量，重点是博士学位。入学和毕业。在全国高等教育机构实施的BD计划有助于实现NSF 2014-2018战略计划中的目标之一，即“整合教育和研究，以支持具有尖端能力的多元化STEM劳动力的发展。“俄克拉荷马州大学是俄克拉荷马州LSAMP联盟（OK-AMP）的成员机构，提出了一个社会支持和社区网络的综合模式，以支持来自代表性不足群体的12名研究生的研究生教育，作为通往博士学位（BD）的桥梁研究员，为期两年。OK-LSAMP将社会认知职业理论和社会资本理论整合到一个基于研究的指导计划中，以优化12名BD研究员的学术，个人和专业发展。指导计划的重点是帮助研究员发展多层次的支持社区。 该项目旨在制度化的文化，提高个人和专业发展，并提高保留所有STEM研究生的博士学位。
