Louis Stokes STEM Pathways and Research Alliance: Greater Philadelphia Region LSAMP (Philadelphia AMP)

路易斯·斯托克斯少数族裔参与联盟（LSAMP）项目帮助大学和学院实现科学、技术、工程和数学（STEM）劳动力的多样化，通过努力显著增加历史上代表性不足的少数族裔（非裔美国人、西班牙裔美国人、美洲印第安人或阿拉斯加原住民）学生的数量，夏威夷原住民或其他太平洋岛民)成功完成高质量的STEM学位课程。根据LSAMP的使命，大费城地区路易斯斯托克斯少数民族参与联盟（费城AMP）将继续执行其STEM途径和研究联盟（SPRA）活动，包括对学生身份和STEM职业探索的新的创新研究。费城AMP由九个不同的机构组成，这些机构合作实现扩大STEM参与的共同使命。该联盟将利用其运营基础设施来提高其合作机构的能力，以招收、留住和毕业更多代表性不足的少数族裔STEM学生（通过大幅扩大他们吸引、发展和支持STEM学生人才的能力）。具体而言，费城AMP建议实现以下计划目标：a)提高学生的参与度，保留率，并为代表性不足的种族和族裔群体提供STEM学士学位；b)增加机构内部和机构间的伙伴关系和合作，包括社区学院的连接，使代表性不足的学生能够成功地从2年制院校转到4年制院校的STEM项目，以及与其他NSF和/或其他联邦资助项目的伙伴关系/合作；c)增加学生获得高质量STEM指导以及国内和国际本科生研究经验的机会；d)促进代表性不足的学生无缝过渡到STEM研究生课程；e)加强对学生成绩和研究生学习和/或行业的记录；f)刺激、记录、发表和传播关于扩大STEM学科参与的新研究和学习，因为它涉及到将学生的学习作为一个探索和采取步骤以获得STEM职业身份的综合过程进行操作和检查。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，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。

The Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority Participation (LSAMP) program assists universities and colleges in diversifying the science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) workforce through their efforts at significantly increasing the numbers of students from historically underrepresented minority populations (African-Americans, Hispanic Americans, American Indians or Alaska Natives, Native Hawaiians or Other Pacific Islanders) to successfully complete high quality degree programs in STEM. In accordance with the LSAMP mission, the Greater Philadelphia Region Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (Philadelphia AMP) will continue to execute its STEM Pathways and Research Alliance (SPRA) activity by including a new and innovative research on student identity and exploration of STEM careers. The Philadelphia AMP consists of nine diverse institutions that collaborate to realize a common mission of broadening participation in STEM. The Alliance will utilize its operational infrastructure to increase the capacity of its partner institutions to recruit, retain and graduate more underrepresented minority STEM students (by substantially expanding their capabilities to attract, develop and support STEM student talent). Specifically, Philadelphia AMP proposes to accomplish the following programmatic objectives: a) increase student engagement, retention, and progression to STEM baccalaureate degrees for underrepresented racial and ethnic groups; b) increase intra-and inter -institutional partnerships and collaborations, including community college connectivity enabling the successful transfer of underrepresented students from 2-year to 4-year institutions in STEM programs, as well as partnerships / collaborations with other NSF and/or other federally-funded programs; c) increase student access to high quality STEM mentoring, and national and international undergraduate research experiences; d) facilitate seamless transition of underrepresented students into STEM graduate programs; e) Enhance documentation of student accomplishments and movement to graduate study and /or industry; and f) stimulate, document, publish, and disseminate new research and learning on broadening participation in STEM disciplines as it relates to operationalizing and examining student learning as an integrated process of exploring and taking steps to attain STEM career identities over time.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.
