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 populations underrepresented in STEM disciplines: African Americans, Hispanic Americans, American Indians, Alaska Natives, 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 Louisiana State University (LSU), one of the 14 universities and colleges included in the Louis Stokes Louisiana Alliance for Minority Participation (LS-LAMP) program. This project is designed to attract, retain, and graduate a cohort of underrepresented PhD students in STEM disciplines equipped with career readiness skills and self-efficacy to enter the STEM workforce. The program components integrate mentoring and research into recruitment and retention strategies alongside targeted activities such as retreats, workshops, monthly meetings, individual development plans, cultural events, summer writing experiences and community outreach. In addition, the project is guided by research questions that are designed to ignite best practices and generate new knowledge about the experiences of a critical graduate student populace. This LS-LAMP BD activity at LSU will positively impact the retention and graduation rates of STEM graduate students from underrepresented populations in doctoral programs, thus producing a diverse workforce of STEM professionals.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）计划通过培养来自STEM学科代表性不足的人群的极具竞争力的学生，帮助大学和学院实现STEM劳动力的多样化：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。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。“这笔赠款的愿景是提供一个全国性的模式，以产生代表性不足的科学家和工程师与博士学位在STEM。该LSAMP BD活动的性能网站是路易斯安那州州立大学（LSU），包括在路易斯斯托克斯路易斯安那州联盟少数民族参与（LS-LAMP）计划的14所大学和学院之一。该项目旨在吸引，保留和毕业一批代表性不足的博士生在STEM学科配备了职业准备技能和自我效能进入STEM劳动力。该计划的组成部分将指导和研究纳入招聘和保留战略，同时开展有针对性的活动，如务虚会，研讨会，月度会议，个人发展计划，文化活动，夏季写作体验和社区推广。此外，该项目是由研究问题，旨在点燃最佳实践，并产生关于一个关键的研究生大众的经验新知识的指导。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响力审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
