Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority Participation (LSAMO): LSAMP-California Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation Phase III

作为28个全国性联盟之一，CAMP进入了国家科学基金会和加州大学欧文分校之间为期十年的合作协议的第九个年头，加州大学欧文分校是领先的校园和行政中心。主要的数字目标是将加州大学SMET(科学、数学、工程、技术)专业中人数不足的学生获得的学士学位数量增加一倍。CAMP在加州大学的八个普通校区开设，创建了一个由教职员工、项目工作人员和学生组成的系统网络，努力实现共同的衡量结果。目标包括完成学士学位，为进入研究生院或专业工作场所的过渡做准备。该项目为本科生提供丰富的机会和教师指导的研究，并提供津贴支持。这一努力使加州大学授予的理科学士学位比基准年(1990-91年)增加了78%。活动集中在教师指导的研究经验，合作学习，在科学会议上发表报告，科学写作和合作，技术素养，以及为研究生院做准备。学生成绩通过季刊和在线网站www.camp.uci.edu发布。通过加州大学董事会多元化计划的永久拨款支持计划的基础设施、管理和扩展。加州联盟采用协同的方法，与加州大学Leads和AGEP(研究生教育和教授联盟)等附属倡议合作，以提高学士学位的完成度和继续深造。为了应对大学和全国教师职位中少数族裔的稀缺，正在特别强调鼓励学生为在学术界的职业生涯做准备，并进入教授职位。坎普使命：科学家和工程师最好的准备是其他科学家和工程师，他们展示并期待学术上的卓越。

One of 28 national alliances, CAMP is entering the ninth year of a ten-year cooperativeagreement between the National Science Foundation and UC Irvine, the lead campus andadministrative center. The primary numerical goal is to double the number of B.S. degreesgranted to underrepresented students in SMET (science, mathematics, engineering, technology)majors at the University of California. Offered at the eight general UC campuses, CAMP hascreated a systemwide network of faculty, program staff and students working toward a commonset of measured outcomes. Goals include completion of the B.S. degree, preparation for andtransition to graduate school or the professional workplace. The program serves undergraduatesthrough enrichment opportunities and faculty mentored research supported by stipends. Thiseffort has contributed to a 78% increase in B.S. degrees granted by UC from the baseline year(1990-91). Activities center on faculty mentored research experiences, collaborative learning,presenting at scientific conferences, science writing and co-authorship, technology literacy, andpreparation for graduate school. Student achievement is disseminated through the Quarterly andon-line, www.camp.uci.edu. A permanent allocation through the UC Regents DiversityInitiative supports program infrastructure, administration, and expansion. Using a synergisticapproach, the California Alliance collaborates with affiliated initiatives such as UC LEADS andAGEP (Alliance for Graduate Education and the Professoriate) that enhance baccalaureate degreecompletion and continuation to advanced study. Responding to the paucity of minorities infaculty positions in the university and nationwide, special emphasis is being placed onencouraging students to prepare for a career in academia, and entering the professoriate. TheCAMP mission: Scientists and engineers are best prepared by other scientists and engineers whoexhibit and expect scholarly excellence.
