The Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority Participation (LSAMP) program assists universities and colleges in diversifying the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) workforce through the development of highly competitive students from groups historically underrepresented in STEM disciplines: 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 quality of STEM graduate students from underrepresented populations, with emphasis on Ph.D. matriculation and completion. For the U.S. to remain globally competitive, it is vital that it taps into the talent of all its citizens and provides exceptional educational preparedness in STEM areas that underpin the knowledge-based economy. BD programs implemented in the nation's institutions of higher education contribute to addressing one of the objectives in NSF's 2018-2022 Strategic Plan, namely to "integrate education and research to support development of a diverse STEM workforce with cutting-edge capabilities." The Illinois Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (ILSAMP) is led by Chicago State University, which is a Predominantly Black University (PBU). The University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC), a minority-serving institution, will host the 2019-2021 BD cohort of 12 historically underrepresented minority postbaccalaureate students pursuing graduate degrees in STEM disciplines. UIC will offer a comprehensive program that includes rigorous academic preparation and research training experiences as well as mentorship and professional development activities. Since the strategies implemented at UIC will result in the production of well-trained, highly-skilled STEM professionals from underrepresented minority groups, the project contributes significantly to increasing the diversity and representation in academia and the STEM workforce, thereby ensuring the nation's global competitiveness. Since 2006, the ILSAMP BD at UIC has produced 29 STEM PhDs to this population of participants.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) 计划通过培养来自历史上在 STEM 学科中代表性不足的群体的极具竞争力的学生，帮助大学和学院实现科学、技术、工程和数学 (STEM) 劳动力的多元化：非裔美国人、阿拉斯加州原住民、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) 活动的目标是提高代表性不足人群中 STEM 研究生的数量和质量，重点是博士学位。入学和完成。美国要保持全球竞争力，就必须发挥全体公民的才能，并在支撑知识经济的 STEM 领域提供卓越的教育准备。在美国高等教育机构实施的 BD 项目有助于实现 NSF 2018-2022 年战略计划的目标之一，即“整合教育和研究，支持培养具有尖端能力的多元化 STEM 劳动力”。伊利诺伊州路易斯斯托克斯少数族裔参与联盟 (ILSAMP) 由芝加哥州立大学领导，该大学是一所以黑人为主的大学 (PBU)。伊利诺伊大学芝加哥分校 (UIC) 是一所为少数族裔服务的机构，将接待 2019-2021 学年 BD 学生，该学生由 12 名历史上代表性不足的少数族裔学士后学生组成，他们正在攻读 STEM 学科的研究生学位。 UIC 将提供全面的计划，包括严格的学术准备和研究培训经验以及指导和专业发展活动。由于 UIC 实施的战略将为代表性不足的少数群体培养训练有素、高技能的 STEM 专业人员，因此该项目将为提高学术界和 STEM 劳动力的多样性和代表性做出重大贡献，从而确保国家的全球竞争力。自 2006 年以来，UIC 的 ILSAMP BD 已为这一群体的参与者培养了 29 名 STEM 博士。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审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
