2007 LSAMP: Virginia-North Carolina Alliance for Minority Participation (Phase I)

弗吉尼亚-北卡罗来纳州少数群体参与联盟(VA-NC AMP)是路易斯斯托克斯少数群体参与联盟(LSAMP)的第一阶段，它已经做好准备，将参与国家科学基金会的倡议，扩大未被充分代表的人群在科学、技术、工程和数学(STEM)学科和劳动力中的参与。弗吉尼亚州和北卡罗来纳州的八所学院和大学组成了拟议的退伍军人事务部-北卡罗来纳州AMP：四所历史上的黑人学院和大学(HBCU)，包括两所硕士学院和大学；以及四所博士授予/研究型大学，在整个联盟内建立了致力于学生成功的强大的公私机构合作伙伴关系。弗吉尼亚-北卡罗来纳州AMP的目标是，到2012年底，将授予STEM领域中代表性不足人群的STEM学士学位的数量从2001年到2005学年的524个翻一番，达到1053个。

The Virginia-North Carolina Alliance for Minority Participation (VA-NC AMP), a Phase I Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (LSAMP), is well poised to participate in the National Science Foundation's initiative to broaden participation of underrepresented populations in the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines and workforce. Eight colleges and universities in Virginia and North Carolina comprise the proposed VA-NC AMP: Four historically black colleges and universities (HBCU), including two Master's Colleges and Universities; and four Doctorate-Granting/Research-Extensive Universities, forging a strong public-private institutional partnership dedicated to student success across the Alliance. VA-NC AMP's goal is to double the number of STEM baccalaureate degrees awarded to students from underrepresented populations in STEM fields from an Alliance yearly average base, measured over academic years 2001 through 2005, of 524 to 1,053 by the end of 2012.
