LSAMP Bridge to the Doctorate Cohort 11

为了满足美国在科学、技术、工程和数学(STEM)学科保持全球竞争力的国家需求，注入了一批未被开发的有才华、有创造力和智慧的学生，这些学生在STEM中历来没有被充分代表的获得博士学位的人数。是必要的。杰克逊州立大学(JSU)是一所历史悠久的黑人大学(HBCU)，在培养化学、数学、生物、环境科学、计算机科学和工程专业的非裔美国研究生攻读STEM博士学位方面有着良好的记录。到目前为止，JSU的BD项目已经从代表不足的群体培养了20名博士毕业生，其中94人被博士项目录取。通过他们的计划，JSU已经并将为美国的大学和学院提供合格和多样化的教职员工，并影响拥有博士学位和进入劳动力大军的科学家、数学家和工程师的数量。杰克逊州立大学将实施一个BD项目，该项目的基础是富有挑战性和丰富的研究和学术经验、专业长期目标和目标的发展和实施、利用STEM在目标博士项目机构的暑期研究实习以及国际研究经验。他们的BD计划的目标分为四类：研究和学术、丰富活动、国家和国际伙伴关系以及评估和学生跟踪。这些活动再加上LSAMP项目的充足资金支持、严格的课程设置和坚定的指导，将使他们的BD项目能够继续加速并提高STEM历史上代表性不足的学生进入博士研究生队伍的质量和数量。

In order to address the national need for the U.S. to remain globally competitive in Science Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) disciplines, an infusion of an untapped pool of talented, creative, and intelligent students historically underrepresented in STEM who earn Ph.Ds. is needed. Jackson State University (JSU), a Historically Black University (HBCU), has a strong track record for preparing primarily African American graduate students in chemistry, mathematics, biology, environmental science, computer science, and engineering for STEM doctoral degrees. JSU's BD program to date has produced 20 Ph.D. graduates from underrepresented groups and 94 who were admitted into doctoral programs. Through their program, JSU has and will provide well-qualified and diverse faculty members for U.S. universities and colleges, as well as impact the number of scientists, mathematicians, and engineers holding the doctorate and entering the workforce. Jackson State University will execute a BD program that is based upon challenging and rich research and academic experiences, the development and implementation of professional long term goals and objectives, the utilization of STEM summer research internships at targeted Ph.D. program institutions, and international research experiences. The objectives of their BD program fall into four categories: Research and Academics, Enrichment Activities, National and International Partnerships, and Evaluation and Student Tracking. These activities along with sufficient financial support from the LSAMP program, rigorous curricula, and committed mentoring will allow their BD program to continue to accelerate and increase the quality and number of students historically underrepresented in STEM entering the Ph.D. pipeline.
