The Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority Participation (LSAMP) program assists universities and colleges in diversifying the science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) workforce through their efforts at significantly increasing the numbers of students from historically underrepresented minority populations to successfully complete high quality degree programs in STEM.The State University of New York Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (SUNY LSAMP) has been funded for 20 years and has built a synergistic collaboration of 14 public higher education institutions in the state of New York that provide a diverse mix of academic strengths and capabilities. Stony Brook (lead institution), Albany, Binghamton, Buffalo, College at Buffalo, Farmingdale, New Paltz and Old Westbury (4-year institutions) and community colleges: Dutchess, Nassau, Orange, Schenectady, Suffolk and Westchester colleges comprise the partnership. Over the next five years, the goals of the project are to:--meet the grand challenge of preparing underrepresented minority students for successful transition into science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) majors;--focus on providing experiential activities that lead to socialization into science;--promote significant systemic change by increasing research on broadening participation.The primary focus of SUNY LSAMP is to ensure student success in completing undergraduate and graduate degrees in STEM disciplines. Interventions are primed for a more intentional focus on LSAMP students' success at the community college transfer level and successful entry into graduate school in the completion of STEM degrees.The SUNY LSAMP program is comprehensive and designed to enhance academic and research outcomes including well-prepared underrepresented minority students in STEM disciplines equipped for success in graduate school, engaging mentoring and research student retention models, and a sound and rigorous evaluation plan. The program will leverage its institutional research infrastructure and its partnerships with other state organizations and STEM projects to facilitate successful transitions of minority students in STEM fields.The goal of the study, which focuses on community college participants, is to identify an evidenced-based formula for understanding what components of STEM enrichment programs contribute to STEM success and why among underrepresented minority students. This is a multi-institutional research project that utilizes a theoretically grounded model - Fostering (STEM) Identity through Transitions (FIT) Model -to explore issues of STEM success. The study has the potential to fine-tune the FIT theoretical model resulting in the continuing development of enrichment programming in STEM throughout the SUNY system and for use at other institutions.Alliance program evaluation findings assessing the effectiveness of the SUNY LSAMP strategies will be shared with the education community to build the knowledge base and foster implementation of best practices. In addition, the project includes a study to identify an evidenced-based formula for understanding what components of STEM enrichment programs contribute to STEM success among underrepresented minority students. Over the past 20 years, the SUNY LSAMP program has yielded amazing outcomes including a quadrupling of STEM B. S. degrees to students in historically underrepresented populations. The alliance has achieved an eleven-fold increase in STEM enrollment for this same population of students during this same period. Since 2011, community college students transferring to 4-year STEM undergraduate programs has nearly doubled. The best practices implemented in this project will have transferable values for STEM activities in other institutions in the nation. It will also create an environment in which the outcomes achieved will be sustainable after the project comes to an end. SUNY LSAMP will not only increase the number of successful students completing degrees in STEM disciplines, but is also committed to creating a more diverse and competitive STEM workforce in the nation.

The Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority Participation (LSAMP) program assists universities and colleges in diversifying the science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) workforce through their efforts at significantly increasing the numbers of students from historically underrepresented minority populations to successfully complete high quality degree programs in STEM.The State University of New York Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (SUNY LSAMP) has been funded for 20 years and纽约州的14个公共高等教育机构建立了协同合作，提供了多种学术优势和能力的组合。 Stony Brook（主要机构），奥尔巴尼，宾厄姆顿，布法罗，布法罗大学，法明代尔，新帕尔茨和旧韦斯特伯里（4年机构）和社区学院：荷兰人，拿骚，奥兰治，Schenectady，萨福克，萨福克和韦斯特切斯特学院由合作伙伴组成。 在接下来的五年中，该项目的目标是： - 应对代表性不足的少数群体学生成功过渡到科学，技术，工程和数学（STEM）专业的过渡； - 专注于提供体验活动，提供社交，从而导致科学发展； - 通过在宽阔的研究中促进大量的全身性变化，以确保在Suny Lsamp的研究中促进大量的研究。学科。 干预措施是为了更加有意地专注于LSAMP学生在社区大学转移水平上的成功，并成功进入研究生院。SUNYLSAMP计划是全面的，旨在增强学术和研究成果，以增强包括良好代表性较低的少数派学生在STEM Incepline中的良好成绩，以在STEM Incepline中获得良好的少数派学生，以在毕业生和研究中进行培训，并进行了研究，并进行了研究，并进行了研究。 该计划将利用其机构研究基础架构及其与其他州组织和STEM项目的合作伙伴关系，以促进STEM领域的少数族裔学生的成功过渡。该研究的目的是为社区大学参与者而言，是为了确定一个基于证据的公式，以了解有助于STEM丰富计划的成分有助于STEM的成功和为什么未成年人的成分，以及为什么不属于未成年人的学生。 这是一个多机构的研究项目，它利用理论上扎根的模型 - 通过过渡（fit）模型促进（STEM）身份 - 探索成功的STEM成功问题。这项研究有可能微调合适的理论模型，从而导致整个SUNY系统中的STEM中富集编程的持续开发，并在其他机构中使用。Alliance计划评估结果评估了SUNY LSAMP策略的有效性，将与教育社区共享，以建立知识基础并促进最佳实践的实施。 此外，该项目还包括一项研究，以确定一个基于证据的公式，以了解哪些STEM富集计划的组成部分有助于在代表性不足的少数民族学生中成功。在过去的20年中，SUNY LSAMP计划取得了惊人的成果，包括STEM B. S. S.学位的三倍，向历史上代表性不足的人群中的学生提供了三倍。 在同一时期，该联盟的STEM入学人数增加了11倍。 自2011年以来，转入4年STEM本科课程的社区大学生几乎翻了一番。该项目实施的最佳实践将具有可转移的价值观，可转移全国其他机构的STEM活动。它还将创造一个环境，在该环境结束后，在该环境中取得的成果将是可持续的。 SUNY LSAMP不仅会增加STEM学科学位的成功学生的数量，而且还致力于在美国创造更多样化和竞争性的STEM劳动力。
