This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program provides $1,075,000.00 to Stony Brook University to implement the LSAMP Bridge to the Doctorate (LSAMP-BD) program. The key objectives are to: 1) recruit 12 LSAMP-BD fellows with the potential to complete STEM graduate studies, 2) design and implement an LSAMP-BD program to support fellows through the first two years of STEM graduate school, 3) ensure LSAMP-BD fellows graduate and enter academia or the STEM workforce, 4) provide academic and programmatic support to STEM departments to assist fellows through doctoral study, and 5) promote systemic changes in STEM graduate education policies and practices to increase student success. This award aims to contribute to increasing the number of underrepresented minority students who obtain STEM master's and doctoral degrees, thereby expanding the national STEM talent pool. The award period runs from June 1, 2024 to May 31, 2026.
