LSAMP BD: Northeastern University Nominated by the Northeast Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation GROWING the Northeastern LSAMP BD STARS Fellowship Pathway

路易斯·斯托克斯少数民族参与联盟（LSAMP）计划通过努力帮助大学和学院实现STEM劳动力的多样化，以显着增加成功完成科学，技术，工程和数学（STEM）学科高质量学位课程的学生人数。特别强调通过创新的招聘和保留战略和经验来改变STEM教育，支持在STEM学科中历史上代表性不足的群体：非洲裔美国人，阿拉斯加原住民，美洲印第安人，西班牙裔美国人，夏威夷原住民和太平洋岛民。该桥梁到博士（BD）活动支持在STEM项目的博士后研究导致STEM博士学位。东北大学（NU）是主办网站为2022-2024 BD计划东北路易斯斯托克斯少数民族参与联盟（NE-LSAMP）的领导下康涅狄格大学。NU将支持第二批上升学者的战略推进（STARS），LSAMP支持的学士后课程，由来自全国各地LSAMP校园招募的12名STEM本科校友组成的学生队列。STARS计划采用了招聘，反思，资源，追索，保留和上升的六个R模型。学生接受严格的学术和经验研究培训，支持完成STEM博士学位。以及向学术界和工业界竞争性职业的过渡。教师STEM导师培训和发展，沿着与文化相关的STEM辅导和评估，是该计划的突出特点，包括与国家指导研究网络（nmren），卓越的路易斯斯托克斯中西部区域中心和印第安纳州LSAMP项目的联系。将招募多学科队列。然而，该项目还利用了最近资助的NSF INCLUDES项目的编程，该项目增加了工程学科的多样性。形成性和总结性评估活动包括对项目实施和学生成果的评估和评估。项目成果和年度评估报告将通过东北联盟和NU的网站以及STEM专业会议进行传播。BD活动的长期影响反映在美国的STEM劳动力中，无论是在学术界还是在工业研发领域。通过培养未来的STEM领导者所增加的价值体现在科学和工程领域代表性不足的群体的可见度，增加代表性，并为下一代提供榜样和STEM领导力。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响力审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

The Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority Participation (LSAMP) program assists universities and colleges in diversifying the STEM workforce through their efforts to significantly increase the number of students successfully completing high-quality degree programs in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines. Particular emphasis is placed on transforming STEM education through innovative recruitment and retention strategies and experiences supporting groups historically underrepresented in STEM disciplines: African-Americans, Alaska Natives, American Indians, Hispanic Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Native Pacific Islanders. The Bridge to the Doctorate (BD) Activity supports postbaccalaureate studies in STEM programs leading to the STEM doctoral degree.Northeastern University (NU) is the host site for the 2022-2024 BD program for the Northeast Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (NE-LSAMP) under the leadership of the University of Connecticut. NU will support the second cohort of Strategic Advancement of Rising Scholars(STARS), an LSAMP-supported postbaccalaureate program consisting of a student cohort of 12 STEM undergraduate alumni recruited from LSAMP campuses across the nation.The STARS program incorporates a six Rs model of recruitment, reflection, resources, recourse, retention, and rise. Students receive rigorous academic and experiential research training that supports the completion of the STEM Ph.D. and the transition to a competitive career in academia and industry. Faculty STEM mentor training and development, along with culturally relevant STEM mentoring and evaluation, are prominent features of the program that includes linkages to the National Mentoring Research Network (NMRN), the Louis Stokes Midwest Regional Center of Excellence, and Indiana LSAMP projects. A multi-disciplinary cohort will be recruited. However, the project also leverages programming from a recently-funded NSF INCLUDES project that increases diversity in the engineering discipline.Formative and summative evaluation activities include evaluation and assessment of the project's implementation and student outcomes. Project results and annual evaluation reports will be disseminated through the Northeast Alliance and NU's website and at STEM professional conferences. The long-term impact of the BD activity is reflected in America's STEM workforce, both in academia and in industrial research and development. The value added by nurturing future STEM leaders is seen in the visibility of underrepresented groups in science and engineering, increasing representation, and providing role models and STEM leadership for the next generation.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.
