The Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority Participation (LSAMP) program assists universities and colleges in their efforts to significantly increase the numbers of students matriculating into and successfully completing high quality degree programs in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) disciplines to diversify the STEM workforce. Particular emphasis is placed on transforming undergraduate STEM education through innovative, evidence-based recruitment and retention strategies, and relevant educational experiences in support of racial and ethnic groups historically underrepresented in STEM disciplines: African Americans, Hispanic Americans, American Indians, Alaska Natives, Native Hawaiians, and Native Pacific Islanders. These strategies facilitate the production of well-prepared students highly-qualified and motivated to pursue graduate education or careers in STEM.For the United States (U.S.) to remain globally competitive, it is vital that it taps into the talent of all its citizens and provides exceptional educational preparedness in STEM areas that underpin the knowledge-based economy. The California State University-Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (CSU-LSAMP) program was established in 1993 in response to the need for a more diverse and skilled technical workforce. That need still exists and is particularly acute in the State of California. CSU-LSAMP is an alliance of the 23 campuses of the California State University (CSU) system. As a LSAMP STEM Pathways and Research Alliance, the project has two primary goals: (1) increase the number of underrepresented minority (URM) students graduating with undergraduate and graduate degrees in STEM, and (2) contribute to the production of scholarly research in broadening participation in STEM. These goals support the National Science Foundation's strategic goal to "cultivate a world-class, broadly inclusive science and engineering workforce, and expand the scientific literacy of all citizens." To achieve the first goal, CSU-LSAMP will provide activities that support the academic integration, professionalization, and social integration of participants. Goal two will be achieved through the creation of a research team made up of social science researchers, program evaluators, and the CSU-LSAMP leadership team. This research team will be the first step in creating a CSU center for broadening participation research, which will serve as a resource for education and social science researchers across the CSU system. Research results will be broadly disseminated to ensure the replication of successful undergraduate intervention models that increase access to, and success in STEM baccalaureate degree programs and facilitate admissions to STEM graduate programs; and moreover, lead to a more talented and diverse STEM workforce.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

路易斯·斯托克斯少数民族参与联盟（LSAMP）计划协助大学和学院努力显著增加学生入学人数并成功完成科学，技术，工程和数学（STEM）学科的高质量学位课程，以使STEM劳动力多样化。 特别强调通过创新的，基于证据的招聘和保留策略，以及相关的教育经验，以支持历史上在STEM学科中代表性不足的种族和族裔群体，如非洲裔美国人，西班牙裔美国人，美洲印第安人，阿拉斯加原住民，夏威夷原住民和太平洋岛民，来改变本科STEM教育。 这些策略促进了准备充分的学生的生产高素质和积极性，以追求研究生教育或在STEM的职业生涯。为了保持全球竞争力，它必须利用所有公民的才能，并在支撑知识经济的STEM领域提供卓越的教育准备。 加州州立大学-路易斯·斯托克斯少数民族参与联盟（CSU-LSAMP）计划成立于1993年，以应对对更多样化和熟练的技术劳动力的需求。 这种需要仍然存在，在加州州尤为迫切。 CSU-LSAMP是加州州立大学（CSU）系统的23个校区的联盟。 作为LSAMP STEM途径和研究联盟，该项目有两个主要目标：（1）增加获得STEM本科和研究生学位的代表性不足的少数族裔（URM）学生的数量，以及（2）为学术研究的产生做出贡献扩大STEM的参与。 这些目标支持美国国家科学基金会的战略目标，即“培养世界一流的、广泛包容的科学和工程劳动力，扩大所有公民的科学素养。"为了实现第一个目标，CSU-LSAMP将提供支持参与者的学术融合，专业化和社会融合的活动。 目标二将通过创建一个由社会科学研究人员，计划评估人员和CSU-LSAMP领导团队组成的研究团队来实现。 该研究团队将是创建CSU中心以扩大参与研究的第一步，该中心将成为CSU系统中教育和社会科学研究人员的资源。 将广泛传播研究成果，以确保复制成功的本科干预模式，增加获得STEM学士学位课程的机会和成功，并促进STEM研究生课程的录取;而且，该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的评估来支持。影响审查标准。
