2011 SUNY LSAMP Bridge to the Doctorate Cohort at Binghamton University

纽约州立大学（SUNY）路易斯·斯托克斯少数民族参与联盟（SUNY LSAMP）在纽约州立大学石溪分校的领导下，将在2011-2013年纽约州立大学宾厄姆顿分校的博士学位衔接（BD）项目期间再资助12名学士后学生。该计划建立在以前的奖学金，不仅显着增加了研究生入学率和硕士和博士学位的学生从代表不足的少数民族（UREP）但也导致了STEM教育的文化和实践的重要变化，不仅帮助UREP学生，而且帮助所有STEM研究生。该项目增加了SUNY LSAMP目前的努力，以建立在STEM教育的研究能力，研究生教育领域。从通往博士学位的桥梁项目的研究中吸取的经验教训将被放在更广泛的系统性变革问题的背景下，并传播给广大的国家受众。利用从该项目中吸取的经验教训，该联盟希望继续发展和完善战略，以增加研究生的招聘和保留，并进一步使研究生教育部门多样化。该战略有可能增加成功完成STEM学科博士学位的UREP STEM学生的数量，并改变STEM部门的文化和实践。

The State University of New York (SUNY) Louis Stokes Alliance for MinorityParticipation (SUNY LSAMP), under the leadership of SUNY-Stony Brook, will support12 additional post-baccalaureate students during the 2011-2013 Bridge to the Doctorate(BD) program at the SUNY-Binghamton. This program builds on previous programefforts that have not only significantly added to the graduate enrollment and mastersand doctoral degrees to students from underreprested minority (UREP) populations buthave also led to important changes in the culture and practice of STEM education inways that not only help UREP students but all graduate STEM students.The project adds to current efforts by SUNY LSAMP to build research capacity in STEMeducation in the area of graduate education. The lessons learned from the study of theBridge to the Doctorate Program will be put into the context of broader issues ofsystemic change and disseminated to a broad national audience.Using the lessons learned from this project, the alliance expects to continue to developand refine strategies that will increase the recruitment and retention of graduatestudents and further diversify graduate education departments. The strategy has thepotenital to increase the number of UREP STEM students who successfully completedoctoral degrees in STEM disciplines and make changes in STEM departmental cultureand practice.
