The Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority Participation (LSAMP) program assists universities and colleges in diversifying the STEM workforce through the development of highly competitive students from groups historically underrepresented in STEMdisciplines: African-Americans, Alaska Natives, American Indians, Hispanic Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Native Pacific Islanders. The goal of the LSAMP Bridge to the Doctorate (BD) Activity is to increase the quantity and competitiveness of STEMgraduate students from historically underrepresented minority populations, with emphasis on STEM doctoral matriculation and completion.The 2018-2020 North Carolina LSAMP (NC-LSAMP) BD program will recruit twelve (12)alumni from LSAMP institutions nationwide for STEM postbaccalaureate studies at North Carolina State University Student support in the form of stipends and cost of education are provided for two years for each student. The institution commits to assisting the students financially through completion of the STEM doctoral program. NCSU's strategy focuses on the student and develops a comprehensive supportive program that will increase the student's confidence in being a strong and productive STEM researcher; increases the student's connection to their research advisor; increases their ability to assess and contribute towards their research topic; increases their connection to the university and surrounding community; and, increases their overall well-being. The project activities adds new knowledge to the literature related to the impact of proximal influences on the persistence of minority graduate students. In addition, the proposal will add new insights into strategies that lead to positive outcomes during the interactions within the different proximal influences. At the conclusion of this program, the BD participants will be armed with robust and resilient strategies that will allow them to maintain their persistence through the Ph.D. degree. Our faculty will be instructed in new mentoring techniques to help improve their interactions with their graduate students. Our study will be the first to explore the impact of an advisory panel for each graduate student to improve the overall well-being of the graduate student and their persistence through the graduate program.Evaluative activities will assess outcomes of students' accomplishments relating to retention, degree completion, and career progress. Social psychological outcomes related to career goals and expectations related to STEM identity development will also be assessed. Outcomes will be disseminated broadly through the institution's website, scholarly journals, and presentations at STEM professional conferences. These efforts will increase the diversity of STEM academic leadership and contribute to the growing literature on broadening participation in STEM at the graduate and post-graduate level.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.

路易斯斯托克斯少数族裔参与联盟 (LSAMP) 计划通过培养具有高度竞争力的学生来实现 STEM 劳动力的多元化，这些学生来自历史上在 STEM 学科中代表性不足的群体：非裔美国人、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、和太平洋原住民。 LSAMP 通往博士学位的桥梁 (BD) 活动的目标是提高来自历史上代表性不足的少数群体的 STEM 研究生的数量和竞争力，重点是 STEM 博士入学和完成。2018-2020 北卡罗来纳州 LSAMP (NC-LSAMP) BD 计划将从全国 LSAMP 机构招募十二 (12) 名校友，在北卡罗来纳州立大学进行 STEM 学士后学习 学生支持的形式为为每位学生提供两年的津贴和教育费用。该机构致力于在经济上帮助学生完成 STEM 博士课程。 NCSU 的战略以学生为重点，并制定了全面的支持计划，以增强学生成为强大且富有成效的 STEM 研究人员的信心；增加学生与研究顾问的联系；提高他们评估研究课题并为其做出贡献的能力；增加他们与大学和周边社区的联系；并且，提高他们的整体福祉。该项目活动为有关近端影响对少数族裔研究生坚持的影响的文献增添了新知识。此外，该提案还将增加对策略的新见解，这些策略可在不同近端影响力的相互作用中产生积极的结果。 在该计划结束时，BD 参与者将拥有强大且有弹性的策略，使他们能够在博士学位期间保持坚持。程度。我们的教师将接受新的指导技术的指导，以帮助改善他们与研究生的互动。我们的研究将首次探讨顾问小组对每个研究生的影响，以改善研究生的整体福祉及其通过研究生课程的坚持。评估活动将评估学生在保留、保留、学位完成和职业进步。还将评估与职业目标相关的社会心理结果以及与 STEM 身份发展相关的期望。研究成果将通过该机构的网站、学术期刊以及 STEM 专业会议上的演讲广泛传播。这些努力将增加 STEM 学术领导力的多样性，并有助于不断增加关于在研究生和研究生层面扩大 STEM 参与的文献。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进行评估，被认为值得支持以及更广泛的影响审查标准。
