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 (Blacks and African-Americans, Hispanic and Latino Americans, American Indians, Alaska Natives, Native Hawaiians and Native Pacific Islanders) to successfully complete high quality degree programs in STEM.The Northern New Jersey LSAMP Bridge to the Baccalaureate (NNJ-B2B) project continues its partnership between four community colleges in the state, namely, Passaic County Community College (PCCC), Bergen Community College, Hudson County Community College (HCCC), and County College of Morris (UCM), to increase transfer rates to four-year STEM degree programs for LSAMP student populations. PCCC leads this three-year project. The institutions will partner through articulations agreements with four-year institutions in the state including Rutgers University-New Brunswick, Ramapo College of New Jersey, New Jersey City University, Stockton University, Vaughn College of Aeronautics and Technology, St. Elizabeth's College, among others in STEM fields such as cybersecurity and chemical technology.The goal is to increase the number of transfers during the project period. NNJ-B2B institutions will leverage knowledge generated from prior NSF funded projects to bring expertise to the design and implementation of a range of high impact practices that will aide in achieving its transfer goal and transform its recruitment and retention interventions and institutions. Students will benefit from financial support, early undergraduate research experiences, STEM mentoring and professional development in addition to social integration activities. Leadership and governance activities of the alliance will continue emphasis on improving articulation policies with additional four-year institutions. A longitudinal study of students participating in the B2B project since 2014 is proposed along with process evaluation. Project outcomes will be disseminated locally and nationally through conferences and on-line STEM education journals. Findings from this LSAMP B2B project will benefit educational institutions and the STEM community nationally in broadening participation efforts.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) 计划通过努力显着增加来自历史上代表性不足的少数族裔（黑人和非裔美国人）的学生数量，协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、西班牙裔和拉丁美洲裔美国人、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）成功完成高质量的 STEM 学位课程。新泽西州北部 LSAMP通往学士学位 (NNJ-B2B) 项目继续与该州四所社区学院之间的合作伙伴关系，即帕赛克县社区学院 (PCCC)、卑尔根社区学院、哈德逊县社区学院 (HCCC) 和莫里斯县学院 (UCM) ），提高 LSAMP 学生群体转入四年制 STEM 学位课程的比例。 PCCC 领导这个为期三年的项目。这些机构将通过衔接协议与该州的四年制大学合作，包括罗格斯大学新不伦瑞克分校、新泽西拉马波学院、新泽西城市大学、斯托克顿大学、沃恩航空技术学院、圣伊丽莎白学院等在网络安全和化学技术等 STEM 领域。目标是增加项目期间的转学数量。 NNJ-B2B 机构将利用之前 NSF 资助项目产生的知识，将专业知识引入到一系列高影响力实践的设计和实施中，这将有助于实现其转移目标并转变其招聘和保留干预措施和机构。除了社会融合活动之外，学生还将受益于经济支持、早期本科生研究经验、STEM 指导和专业发展。联盟的领导和治理活动将继续注重改善与其他四年制机构的衔接政策。建议对自 2014 年以来参与 B2B 项目的学生进行纵向研究以及过程评估。项目成果将通过会议和在线 STEM 教育期刊在当地和全国传播。该 LSAMP B2B 项目的研究结果将使全国范围内的教育机构和 STEM 社区在扩大参与努力方面受益。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。
