Houston-Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation: Findings from 17 Years of a Multi-Institutional Consortium Focused on Building Minority Student Success in STEM

This rich, longitudinally descriptive study provides an examination of program outcomes, student characteristics, and workforce outcomes of the Houston-Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (H-LSAMP) program. Utilizing data from the University of Houston's Education Research Center, this study offers a detailed analysis of the long-term effects of participation in the H-LSAMP program, from high school to university and into the workforce. Findings from this study revealed that only 25% of the high school campuses attended by H-LSAMP students had a high proportion of economically disadvantaged students. In addition, nearly 75% of undergraduate students enrolled in the program graduated within the timeframe of the study, half of which were from Black and Latinx backgrounds.
