The Georgia Alabama LSAMP Partner institutions include Clark Atlanta University (CAU), the lead institution, Georgia State University, and Morehouse, Paine, and Atlanta Metropolitan Colleges. Between 1991-1995 and 1997-2001, the Georgia Alabama LSAMP was among the Nation's top alliances in sending its baccalaureate recipients to become Black STEM doctoral degree holders. The unifying themes of the Phase II program include focused recruitment and retention, required research participation, student financial support, and graduate school enrollment. The Georgia Alabama LSAMP in Phase II will significantly increase the number of STEM baccalaureate degrees, impact more than 15,000 undergraduates, increase the number of undergraduate degree recipients entering graduate school each year by 10 percent, and increase retention each year by 10 percent. Student objectives for Phase II include pre-transfer bridge activities for two-year college students, required research participation for all LSAMP scholars, and completion of research experiences by at least 50 percent of all baccalaureate degree recipients. Faculty objectives include providing opportunities to improve instruction skills, such as using new technologies, and becoming more effective mentors. Curriculum objectives are designed to revise introductory courses as a mechanism to improve retention.
