Louis Stokes New STEM Pathways and Research Alliance: State University of New York (SUNY)

路易斯斯托克斯 STEM 路径和研究联盟：纽约州立大学 (SUNY LSAMP) 将由奥尔巴尼大学牵头，合作机构包括宾汉顿大学、布法罗大学、石溪大学、布法罗州立学院、新帕尔茨学院、老韦斯特伯里学院、哈德逊谷社区学院、罗克兰社区学院和纽约州立大学系统管理学院。纽约州立大学 LSAMP 将实施全面、基于证据和持续的方法，以扩大非裔美国人/黑人、西班牙裔/拉丁裔美国人、美洲印第安人/美洲原住民、阿拉斯加原住民、夏威夷原住民和其他太平洋岛民（历史上代表性不足的少数族裔或 URM）学生对 STEM 的参与。纽约州立大学 LSAMP 的目标是：(1) 通过新生研讨会、全面的学年支持服务以及提高能力和制度化的合作伙伴关系，提高学生个人的参与度、保留率和升读学士学位的能力； (2) 通过纽约州立大学无缝转学计划，通过与纽约州 (NYS) 及其他地区社区学院的合作，提高学生从两年制院校转学到四年制院校的成功率，并包括为学生从社区学院转学到四年制院校做好准备的活动以及全面的支持服务； (3) 通过联盟范围内的本科生暑期研究计划、支持学术和行业研究机会的行业合作伙伴关系以及帮助参与者应用和获得研究经验的综合资源，增加获得高质量 STEM 指导以及本科生和研究生研究经验的机会； (4) 通过初级研究生院准备讲习班、协助参与者申请、确保入学和资助研究生教育的综合资源、纽约州立大学促进招聘、机会、多样性、包容性、成长 (PRODiG) 计划的整合、与研究生院的合作以及纽约州立大学研究生多样性奖学金计划和研究生机会计划，促进学生无缝过渡到 STEM 研究生课程并完成学位； (5) 通过促进 (STEM) 身份转型 (FIT) 研究刺激关于扩大 STEM 学科参与的新研究和学习，与教职员工和行业合作伙伴合作开发文化响应式指导并建立更加包容的学习和工作环境，重点关注 STEM 的公平意识，利用纽约州教育部资助的科学技术入门计划提供 K-12 推广并确定 URM STEM 本科招生的最佳实践，以及整合强调研究成果、共同点的评估和传播计划联盟的成功以及我们联盟合作伙伴的个人贡献。鉴于美国不断变化的人口结构和 STEM 劳动力需求，提高我们对招募、保留和毕业 URM STEM 学生的最佳实践的了解，将通过培养更加多元化的科学劳动力来造福社会。吸引当前和未来的 SUNY LSAMP 参与者将创建一批多元化的合作学者，他们最终将成为并领导我们未来的 STEM 劳动力和研究。纽约州立大学 LSAMP 参与者的成果和研究将予以公布，以鼓励更多学生参与，“通过转型培养 (STEM) 身份” (FIT) 研究的结果将向科学界传播，并鼓励纽约州立大学和纽约州复制最佳实践并将其制度化。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审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

The Louis Stokes STEM Pathways and Research Alliance: State University of New York (SUNY LSAMP) will be led by the University at Albany, with partner institutions Binghamton University, University at Buffalo, Stony Brook University, Buffalo State College, College at New Paltz, College at Old Westbury, Hudson Valley Community College, Rockland Community College, and SUNY System Administration. SUNY LSAMP will implement comprehensive, evidence-based, and sustained approaches to broadening the participation of African American/Black, Hispanic/Latinx American, American Indian/Native American, Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian, and other Pacific Islander (historically underrepresented minority or URM) students in STEM. SUNY LSAMP aims to: (1) increase individual student engagement, retention, and progression to baccalaureate degrees through new student seminars, comprehensive academic year support services, and partnerships that increase capacity and institutionalization; (2) increase the rate of successful transfer of students from two-year to four-year institutions through the SUNY Seamless Transfer initiative, through partnerships with community colleges across NY State (NYS) and beyond, and include activities that prepare students for transfer from community colleges to four-year institutions, and comprehensive support services; (3) increase access to high quality STEM mentoring and undergraduate and graduate research experiences through an Alliance-wide undergraduate summer research program, industry partnerships that support academic and industry research opportunities, and comprehensive resources to assist participants to apply and secure research experiences; (4) increase seamless transition of students into STEM graduate programs and degree completion though junior level graduate school preparation workshops, comprehensive resources to assist participants to apply, secure admission to, and fund graduate education, integration of the SUNY’s Promoting Recruitment, Opportunity, Diversity, Inclusion, Growth (PRODiG) Program, and partnerships with graduate schools, and the SUNY Graduate Diversity Fellowship Program and Graduate Opportunity Program; and (5) stimulate new research and learning on broadening participation in STEM disciplines through the Fostering (STEM) Identity through Transition (FIT) study, collaboration with faculty, staff and industry partners to develop culturally responsive mentoring and build more inclusive learning and working environments focused on equity-mindedness in STEM, leveraging the NYS Education Department funded Science Technology Entry Program to provide K-12 outreach and identify best practices in URM STEM undergraduate enrollment, and integration of an evaluation and dissemination plan that highlights research findings, common successes of the Alliance and the individual contributions of our Alliance partners.Given the changing demographics in the U.S. and STEM workforce needs, advancing our knowledge of best practices to recruit, retain, and graduate URM STEM students will benefit society by preparing a more diverse scientific workforce. Engaging current and future SUNY LSAMP participants will create a pool of diverse engaged collaborative scholars who will ultimately become and lead our future STEM workforce and research. SUNY LSAMP participant outcomes and research will be publicized to encourage more student engagement, findings from the Fostering (STEM) Identity through the Transition (FIT) research study will be disseminated to the scientific community, and replication and institutionalization of best practices will be encouraged across SUNY and NYS.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.
