Louis Stokes Regional Center of Excellence: LSAMP - NSF International Center of Excellence (NICE)

路易·斯托克斯地区NSF国际卓越中心(LSAMP-NICE)路易·斯托克斯地区NSF国际卓越中心(LSAMP-NICE)的目标是为刘易斯·斯托克斯少数族裔参与机构联盟创建一个协作框架，以利用资源，建立合作伙伴关系，并从数十个其他NSF项目和国家获得支持，并通过STEM的国际研究经验进一步加强NSF扩大参与的倡议。具体和可衡量的目标是：目标1：通过建立虚拟门户进行传播和专业发展；目标2：组织LSAMP-NICE年度传播和专业发展会议；目标3：开发动态的信息或传播档案，每年向多达100名LSAMP本科生和20名LSAMP BD研究生提供合作的国际研究机会；目标4：制定、实施和评估教师共同导师奖励程序；和目标5：跟踪LSAMP本科生和BD研究生在国际合作研究中共同撰写的同行评议期刊论文的成功发表情况。LSAMP-NICE相关的智力优势来自于促进LSAMP联盟和数十个具有重要国际研究机会的互补NSF项目之间的合作。LSAMP-NICE内的国际合作伙伴将为扩大代表性不足的学生参与有意义的国际研究经历做出重大贡献。该中心将实施和评估美国教师的共同导师奖，这些教师在海外进行研究时仍与学生进行科学接触。对学生有什么好处？将探索与美国和国际共同导师同时参与相关的研究进展。LSAMP-NICE活动还将导致研究成果在全球STEM社区和公共网络中传播。LSAMP地区卓越中心-NSF国际卓越中心由NSF Includes共同资助，专注于催化STEM企业为包容性变革而合作。NSF LSAMP项目中有机会在美国以外开展有意义的研究的学生相对较少。该项目通过美国国家科学基金会促进科学进步、促进繁荣和福利的使命服务于国家利益。LSAMP-NICE由部落学院(Salish Kotenai College)、西班牙裔服务机构(芝加哥伊利诺伊大学)、历史上的黑人学院(杰克逊州立大学)和大型公立研究型大学(路易斯安那州立大学)组成的联盟领导。LSAMP-NICE渴望扩大LSAMP社区的国际研究机会，特别是在LSAMP联盟中登记在不同规模和支持资源的各种机构中的美洲原住民。由于科学和工程日益全球化，而且面向全球参与的劳动力队伍，LSAMP-NICE致力于确保美国的机构和研究人员(现有的和正在接受培训的)能够通过国际合作推动他们的研究，以帮助保持美国在全球科学界的领导地位。LSAMP NICE采用了NSF的协作模式，充当了LSAMP社区与NSF PIRES和ERC、国际科学组织以及世界各地的部委和高等教育机构之间的接口。通过建立和保持与LSAMP社区的联系的国际伙伴关系，交流合作研究和专业发展的最佳实践，通过年度会议广泛传播学生的成功，以及向国内和国际支持者数字传播信息，完成了这一接口活动。“LSAMP区域卓越中心-NSF国际卓越中心由NSF Includes共同资助，重点是催化STEM企业合作努力实现包容性变革。”该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势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 Regional NSF International Center of Excellence (LSAMP-NICE)The goal of the Louis Stokes Regional NSF International Center of Excellence (LSAMP-NICE) is to create a collaborative framework for Lewis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation institutions to leverage resources, establish partnership and support from dozens of other NSF programs and countries, and to further strengthen the NSF Broadening Participation initiative through international research experiences in STEM. Specific and measurable objectives are, Objective 1: Dissemination and professional development through the establishment of a virtual portal, Objective 2: Organization of an annual LSAMP-NICE Conference for dissemination and professional development, Objective 3: Development of a dynamic archive of information or dissemination, exposing as many as 100 LSAMP undergrads and 20 LSAMP BD grad students to collaborative international research opportunities annually, Objective 4: Develop, implement, and assess faculty co-mentor award process, and Objective 5: Tracking the successful publication of peer-reviewed journal articles co-authored by LSAMP undergrad and BD grad students resulting from collaborative international research.The Intellectual Merit associated with LSAMP-NICE derives from facilitating collaboration among LSAMP alliances and dozens of complementary NSF programs with significant international research opportunities. International partners within LSAMP-NICE will make major contributions to expanded participation of underrepresented students in meaningful international research experiences. The Center will implement and assess co-mentor awards for US faculty who remain scientifically engaged with their students as they do research abroad. The benefits to students? research progress associated with simultaneous engagement of both US and international co-mentors will be explored. LSAMP-NICE activities will also lead to dissemination of research results across the worldwide STEM community and public networks."This LSAMP Regional Center of Excellence - NSF International Center of Excellence is co-funded by NSF INCLUDES, which focuses on catalyzing the STEM enterprise to collaboratively work for inclusive change."Relatively few students in the NSF LSAMP program are given the opportunity to perform meaningful research outside the United States. This project serves the national interest via NSF's mission to promote the progress of science and to advance prosperity and welfare. LSAMP-NICE is led by a coalition of a Tribal College (Salish Kootenai College), a Hispanic Serving Institution (the University of Illinois at Chicago), a Historically Black College (Jackson State University), and a large public research university (Louisiana State University). LSAMP-NICE aspires to broaden exposure of international research opportunities to the LSAMP community, particularly Native Americans enrolled in a diverse range of institutions with different sizes and support resources, across LSAMP coalitions. Because science and engineering are increasingly global, and toward a globally engaged workforce, LSAMP-NICE seeks to ensure that U.S. institutions and researchers (established and in-training) are able to advance their research through international collaboration to help to maintain U.S. leadership within the global scientific community. Adapting the NSF model of collaboration, LSAMP NICE acts as an interface for the LSAMP community at large with NSF PIREs and ERCs, international science organizations, as well as ministries and institutions of higher learning across the world. This interface activity is accomplished through the establishment and maintenance of international partnerships for linkage to the LSAMP community, communication of best practices in collaborative research and professional development, broad communication of student success via annual conferences and digital dissemination of information to domestic and international constituencies."This LSAMP Regional Center of Excellence - NSF International Center of Excellence is co-funded by NSF INCLUDES, which focuses on catalyzing the STEM enterprise to collaboratively work for inclusive change."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.
