The Noyce Scholarship program at MSU will fund both 1-and 2-year scholarships for 39 talented college students who commit to becoming K-12 mathematics or science teachers in high-need districts. The scholarships may be used during a student's 4th or 5th year of an undergraduate teacher preparation program or toward one year of a post-BA program. The funds are being administered through the Division of Science and Mathematics Education. This effort builds on MSU's all-university initiative called Teachers for a New Era (TNE) that involves creating standards for teacher preparation, course development and revision, and implementing new ways of teaching and assessing students. A committee of faculty from the Colleges of Natural Science and Education is overseeing the recruitment, selection, and mentoring of the Noyce Scholars. An experienced evaluator is conducting the evaluation. Graduate students are assisting with mentoring and evaluation. The Noyce Scholarship program is enabling students who graduate from MSU and benefiting from the TNE work to share their knowledge and skills with elementary and secondary schools in high-need areas throughout Michigan and beyond. The scholarships and associated activities are expected to increase the number of teachers graduating with either a major or minor in mathematics or science from about 135 per year in 2000 - 2003 to about 155 per year in the years 2006 - 2008. The number of MSU graduates with mathematics or science majors taking positions in high need schools is also expected to increase proportionately during this period. The Noyce Scholarship program and other recruitment efforts initiated recently at MSU are expected to increase the participation of underrepresented groups in teaching. Further, the Noyce Scholarships are expected to add impetus to a fundraising program begun at MSU to establish a scholarship endowment for students choosing careers in teaching mathematics or science in Grades K -12.

密歇根州立大学的诺伊斯奖学金计划将为39名有才华的大学生提供1年和2年的奖学金，这些学生承诺成为高需求地区的K-12数学或科学教师。奖学金可以在学生的第四或第五年的本科教师准备课程或对一年的后BA课程使用。这些资金由科学和数学教育司管理。 这一努力建立在密歇根州立大学的所有大学倡议称为教师的新时代（TNE），涉及创建教师准备，课程开发和修订的标准，并实施教学和评估学生的新方法。 一个由自然科学学院和教育学院的教师组成的委员会正在监督诺伊斯学者的招聘、选拔和指导。由一名经验丰富的评估员进行评估。研究生正在协助指导和评估。 诺伊斯奖学金计划使谁从密歇根州立大学毕业，并从TNE工作中受益的学生分享他们的知识和技能与整个密歇根州及其他地区的高需求地区的小学和中学。 这些奖学金和相关活动预计将使主修或辅修数学或科学的教师人数从2000 - 2003年的每年约135人增加到2006 - 2008年的每年约155人。在此期间，数学或科学专业的MSU毕业生在高需求学校任职的人数预计也将按比例增加。诺伊斯奖学金计划和最近在密歇根州立大学发起的其他招聘工作预计将增加代表性不足的群体在教学中的参与。此外，诺伊斯奖学金预计将增加在密歇根州立大学开始的筹款计划的动力，为选择在K-12年级教授数学或科学的学生建立奖学金捐赠。
