The Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority Participation (LSAMP) program assists universities and colleges in their efforts to significantly increase the numbers of students matriculating into and successfully completing high quality degree programs in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) disciplines in order to diversify the STEM workforce. Particular emphasis is placed on transforming undergraduate STEM education through innovative, evidence-based recruitment and retention strategies, and relevant educational experiences in support of racial and ethnic groups historically underrepresented in STEM disciplines: Blacks and African Americans, Hispanic and Latino Americans, American Indians, Alaska Natives, Native Hawaiians, and Native Pacific Islanders. These strategies facilitate the production of well-prepared students, highly qualified and motivated to pursue graduate education or careers in STEM. The need for cultivating STEM talent has been well established. For the United States 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. The University of South Florida (USF), partner institution in the Florida-Georgia Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (FGLSAMP), will serve as the 2023-2025 Bridge to the Doctorate (BD) institutional site for the alliance. The project responds to the need for increasingly interdisciplinary and global science and engineering to revitalize the nation's talent pool of domestically trained STEM doctoral scientists and engineers. The 2023-2025 FGLSAMP BD Activity will facilitate increased intellectual exchange and promote greater diversity and inclusion across all USF STEM departments, build upon both FGLSAMP's prior successes and USF's preeminence as a global research university, institutionalize evidence-based practices in the academic and social integration, comprehensive scholar development, and professionalization in the sciences of graduate students from LSAMP populations. Measurable objectives for the 2023-2025 USF FGLSAMP BD Activity will include: 1) recruitment of twelve (12) LSAMP alumni as BD participants by fall 2023 into STEM graduate programs (MS or PhD); 2) implementing a hierarchical and peer mentoring program model along with outreach initiatives to promote BD and undergraduate retention and STEM research careers; (3) fostering mental health, personal and financial well-being of the participants;and (4) achieving 100% retention in graduate STEM programs.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) 计划协助大学和学院努力显着增加入学并成功完成科学、技术、工程和数学 (STEM) 学科高质量学位课程的学生数量，以实现多元化STEM 劳动力。特别强调通过创新的、基于证据的招募和保留策略以及相关的教育经验来改变本科 STEM 教育，以支持历史上在 STEM 学科中代表性不足的种族和族裔群体：黑人和非裔美国人、西班牙裔和拉丁美洲人、美洲印第安人、阿拉斯加原住民、夏威夷原住民和太平洋原住民。这些策略有助于培养出准备充分、高素质、有动力追求研究生教育或 STEM 职业的学生。培养STEM人才的需求已经明确。美国要保持全球竞争力，就必须发挥所有公民的才能，并在支撑知识经济的 STEM 领域提供卓越的教育准备。南佛罗里达大学 (USF) 是佛罗里达州-佐治亚州路易斯斯托克斯少数族裔参与联盟 (FGLSAMP) 的合作机构，将作为该联盟 2023-2025 年通往博士学位桥梁 (BD) 的机构所在地。该项目满足了日益跨学科和全球科学与工程的需求，以振兴国内培训的 STEM 博士科学家和工程师的国家人才库。 2023-2025 年 FGLSAMP BD 活动将促进增加知识交流，并促进 USF 所有 STEM 部门的更大多样性和包容性，以 FGLSAMP 先前的成功和 USF 作为全球研究型大学的卓越地位为基础，将学术和社会融合方面的循证实践制度化、全面的学者发展以及 LSAMP 群体研究生的科学专业化。 2023-2025 年 USF FGLSAMP BD 活动的可衡量目标将包括： 1) 到 2023 年秋季招募十二 (12) 名 LSAMP 校友作为 BD 参与者进入 STEM 研究生课程（硕士或博士）； 2) 实施分层和同伴指导计划模式以及推广活动，以促进 BD 和本科生保留以及 STEM 研究职业； (3) 促进参与者的心理健康、个人和财务福祉；以及 (4) 在研究生 STEM 项目中实现 100% 的保留率。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进行评估，被认为值得支持以及更广泛的影响审查标准。
