The North Carolina Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation
(NC-LSAMP) is a partnership of eight institutions within the
University of North Carolina system (NC A&T, NCSU, NCCU, FSU,
UNC-C, UNC-CH, UNC-P, WSSU). The chief aim of the Alliance is to
substantially increase the number of underrepresented minority
students earning B.S. degrees, and subsequently pursuing M.S.
and Ph.D. degrees in technology, engineering,
mathematics, and science (TEMS) disciplines.
Since the inception of NC-LSAMP in 1992, combined efforts of
partner institutions have resulted in a variety of programs and
activities geared towards enhancing overall student success.
Major initiatives include supplemental instruction, bridge
programs, undergraduate research, and internships. In addition,
an annual research conference sponsored by the Alliance
showcases faculty-mentored research projects completed by
students.
