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 PhD matriculation and completion. BD programs implemented in the nation's institutions of higher education contribute to addressing one of the objectives in NSF's 2018-2022 Strategic Plan, namely to "foster the growth of a more capable and diverse research workforce and advance the scientific and innovation skills of the Nation." The vision of this grant is to provide a national model to produce underrepresented scientists and engineers with doctoral degrees in STEM.The performance site for this LSAMP BD Activity is the University of Idaho (UI), one of the 35 college and universities included in the All Nations Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (ANLSAMP). The UI has its home on the ancestral homelands of the Nez Perce people, and is in close proximity to the traditional homelands of numerous Federally recognized Tribes both in Idaho and in the Northwest. The uniquely positioned project will bring to the forefront Indigenous values and ways of knowing to support Tribal sovereignty and self-determination through developing and seeking to understand culturally responsive educational pathways in which Indigenous scholars can thrive, from the baccalaureate to doctoral degrees. The project will be grounded in the core values of Indigenous methodologies for research, training and mentoring and builds on the success of recruitment, mentoring, and community-building lessons learned from ANLSAMP and campus programs which have demonstrated success with Native American students. The program will solely support LSAMP Native American students, which are historically underrepresented in the STEM disciplines, by providing: 1) culturally responsive recruitment which is connected to existing LSAMP and other Native American focused undergraduate programs and involves the prospective students' whole community; 2) an intensive community-based orientation to graduate school; 3) support for students financially and through a culturally-responsive mentoring model; 4) activities designed to support strong mentee/mentor relationship; 5) monthly seminars and professional training and support for both students and their faculty mentors; and 6) culturally responsive research projects grounded in an understanding of Indigenous Knowledge and Western science. In due course, the model created and researched through the ANLSAMP BD at UI will lead to a significant increase in Native American PhDs entering academics, government, and the private sector.This project is jointly funded by the Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority Participation program and the Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR).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。 该LSAMP桥梁博士（BD）活动的目标是提高数量和质量的STEM研究生从代表性不足的人口，重点是博士预科和完成。 在国家高等教育机构实施的BD计划有助于实现NSF 2018-2022战略计划中的目标之一，即“促进更有能力和多样化的研究队伍的发展，并提高国家的科学和创新技能。“这项拨款的愿景是提供一个国家模式，以产生代表性不足的科学家和工程师与博士学位的STEM.该LSAMP BD活动的性能网站是爱达荷州（UI），包括在所有国家路易斯斯托克斯少数民族参与联盟（ANLSAMP）的35所学院和大学之一的大学。 内兹珀斯人的祖先的家园上的UI有它的家，并在靠近许多联邦承认的部落在爱达荷州和西北部的传统家园。 这个独特的项目将把土著价值观和认识方式带到最前沿，通过开发和寻求理解土著学者可以从学士学位到博士学位蓬勃发展的文化响应教育途径，支持部落主权和自决。 该项目将立足于研究，培训和指导的土著方法的核心价值观，并建立在成功的招聘，指导和社区建设的经验教训，从ANLSAMP和校园计划已经证明与美国土著学生的成功。 该计划将完全支持LSAMP美洲原住民学生，这是历史上在STEM学科代表性不足，通过提供：1）文化响应的招聘，这是连接到现有的LSAMP和其他美洲原住民为重点的本科课程，并涉及未来的学生的整个社区; 2）一个密集的社区为基础的方向研究生院; 3）通过文化敏感的指导模式为学生提供经济支持; 4）旨在支持强大的学员/导师关系的活动; 5）每月为学生及其教师导师举办研讨会和专业培训并提供支持; 6）基于对本土知识和西方科学的理解的文化响应研究项目。 在适当的时候，通过UI的ANLSAMP BD创建和研究的模型将导致美国本土博士进入学术界，政府，该项目由路易斯·斯托克斯少数民族参与联盟计划和刺激竞争研究的既定计划（EPSCoR）共同资助。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
