项目摘要

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 (URM) populations to successfully complete high-quality degree programs in STEM. The Bridges Across Texas LSAMP (BAT-LSAMP) is a collaboration with five Hispanic Serving Institutions (HSI) of higher education- Texas Tech University (TTU), the University of North Texas at Dallas (UNTD), Dallas College El Centro Campus (DCECC), South Plains College (SPC), and Texas Southmost College (TSC). This collaboration represents a demographically diverse and geographically large region that lacked LSAMP support in a state with a growing number of STEM-based career needs and a rapidly changing demographic. BAT-LSAMP is a five-year cross-institutional project that includes innovative and evidence-based strategies to overcome the identified barriers inhibiting the persistence and success of students from underrepresented ethnic groups in STEM. The project objectives are to (1) double the URM baccalaureate degree graduates in STEM disciplines, and (2) increase the number of URM transfers in STEM disciplines. These objectives will be achieved by establishing an interactive, virtually linked network of STEM Centers at each partner institution and implementing high-impact practices, guided by the Sense of Belonging framework, to increase STEM URMs’ access to and participation in advising, mentoring, STEM-focused resources, and developmental resources for social and peer support. By the end of the project period, BAT-LSAMP will have made a transformational impact on a large number of students across the state, and cross-institutional knowledge will be gained about effective and sustainable strategies to facilitate seamless transitions that will strengthen URM persistence and success in STEM, thereby increasing retention and graduation. Dissemination of results and lessons learned will take a multi-prong approach including traditional avenues of information dissemination, i.e., publications, conference presentations and social media and via STEMinars which will be recorded and posted on the BAT-LSAMP website.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（Louis Stok）竞选少数群体参与（LSAMP）计划协助大学和学院通过努力通过大大增加了历史上代表性不足的少数派（URM）人群的努力来使科学，技术，工程和数学（STEM）劳动力多样化，以成功地完成STEM中的高素质学位。得克萨斯州LSAMP（BAT-LSAMP）的桥梁与高等教育机构（HSI）的合作是高等教育 - 德克萨斯理工大学（TTU），北德克萨斯大学达拉斯大学（UNTD），达拉斯学院EL CENTRO COMPLO CAMPUS（DCECC），South Plains College，South Plains College（SPC）和Texas Southmost College（TSC）。这项合作代表了一个人口多样化和地理上庞大的地区，在一个越来越多的基于STEM的职业需求和快速变化的人口统计的州缺乏LSAMP支持。 BAT-LSAMP是一个为期五年的跨机构项目，其中包括创新和循证策略，以克服确定的障碍，抑制了STEM中代表性不足的族裔群体的持久性和成功。项目目标是（1）茎学科中的URM学士学位毕业生，以及（2）增加茎学科中的URM转移数量。这些目标将通过在每个合作伙伴机构中建立一个互动的，几乎连接的STEM中心网络，并在归属框架的意识下实施高影响力实践，以增加STEM URMS对STEM URMS的访问和参与，并参与咨询，心理，以STEM为中心的资源以及社交和同伴支持的发展。到项目期结束时，BAT-LSAMP将对全州的许多学生产生变革性的影响，并且将获得跨机构知识，以有效且可持续的策略获得促进无缝过渡的有效和可持续的策略，从而增强了URM持久性和STEM的成功，从而增加了保留和毕业。传播结果和经验教训将采取多种方法，包括传统的信息传播途径，即出版物，会议演讲和社交媒体以及通过STEMINARS以及将在BAT-LSAMP网站上记录并发布的STEMINAR。此奖项反映了NSF的法规使命，并通过对基金会的知识优点和广泛的cribia cribia crietia进行评估，这是NSF的法规任务，并被认为是宝贵的支持。
