The Robert Noyce Scholarship program at the University of New Mexico (UNM) is recruiting and preparing 22 to 34 new science and mathematics teachers for Albuquerque Public Schools and the Bernalillo Public Schools. The program is administered through the College of Arts and Sciences and the Albuquerque Teachers Institute, a program in the College of Arts and Sciences that supports K-12 outreach activities. Recruitment efforts target departments with large numbers of STEM majors and the School of Engineering. A new interdisciplinary course, Teaching Environmental Science, provides early field experiences for undergraduate students to encourage science teaching as a career. Special efforts to mentor Noyce Scholars include Master Teacher Mentors and summer professional development programs offered through the Albuquerque Teachers Institute. The mentoring efforts are designed to help teachers through the difficult first years. The project's objectives include: 1) a 30 to 50% increase in the number of STEM teachers graduating from UNM; 2) an increase in the number of highly trained teachers in high need school districts; 3) greater visibility of teacher training programs to all STEM majors; 4) increased numbers of STEM students that consider teaching careers due to advertising and early field experiences through the Noyce program; 5) better retention of new teachers through improved mentoring activities; and 6) effective assessment of Noyce scholars and a comparison group of new teachers.

新墨西哥州大学（UNM）的罗伯特·诺伊斯奖学金项目正在为阿尔伯克基公立学校和伯纳里洛公立学校招募和准备22至34名新的科学和数学教师。 该计划是通过艺术和科学学院和阿尔伯克基教师研究所，在艺术和科学学院，支持K-12外展活动的计划管理。 招聘工作的目标是拥有大量STEM专业和工程学院的部门。 一个新的跨学科课程，教学环境科学，为本科生提供早期的实地经验，鼓励科学教学作为一种职业。 指导诺伊斯学者的特别努力包括通过阿尔伯克基教师学院提供的名师导师和夏季专业发展计划。 指导工作旨在帮助教师度过艰难的第一年。 该项目的目标包括：1）从UNM毕业的STEM教师人数增加30%至50%; 2）在高需求学区训练有素的教师人数增加; 3）教师培训计划对所有STEM专业的可见度更高; 4）由于广告和通过Noyce计划的早期实地经验，考虑教学职业的STEM学生人数增加; 5）通过改进辅导活动更好地留住新教师; 6）对诺伊斯学者和新教师对照组进行有效评估。
