Through a collaboration between the Colleges of Education and Arts & Sciences at the University of Toledo and the Toledo Public School district, ten $17,220 stipends per year are provided to 40 professionals who hold at least a B.S. degree in engineering, mathematics, or the sciences. Stipend recipients enroll in graduate level coursework that makes them eligible after two semesters for the Ohio Alternative Educator License, thereby expediting the number of highly qualified teachers entering the profession. Coursework applies towards a post-baccalaureate degree in Education. The University of Toledo Noyce stipends are annually doubling the number of math and science teacher candidates entering the teaching profession at the high school level. All stipend recipients join "UToledo. UTeach. UTouch the Future" (UT3), a program that provides an extensive pre-service clinical experience for math and science education students including mentoring, field experiences, comprehensive student support services, and induction support covering the first three years of teaching implemented through a collaboration between K-12 and university partners. The project is examining what motivates STEM professionals to pursue a teaching career. Formative evaluation linked with research is exploring the barriers that prevent potential recruits from pursuing a teaching career. Barriers investigated include the common misconceptions about the teaching profession, the amount of time needed to obtain licensure, demographic data, and the presence or absence of factors that commonly motivate a person to become a teacher. As part of UT3, stipend recipients are guaranteed an urban teaching experience, the opportunity to practice under the watch of master teachers in the field, the opportunity to experience urban math and science education in informal settings through community service, and enrollment in courses on pedagogy that incorporate both the use of technology as a teaching tool and inquiry as an effective teaching strategy.

通过托莱多大学教育学院和艺术与科学学院与托莱多公立学校学区的合作，每年向40名至少拥有工程、数学或科学学士学位的专业人员提供10美元的17,220美元津贴。助学金获得者注册研究生水平的课程，使他们在两个学期后有资格获得俄亥俄州替代教育者执照，从而加快了进入该职业的高素质教师的数量。课程设置适用于教育学学士后学位。托莱多诺伊斯大学的津贴每年使进入高中教学专业的数学和科学教师候选人的数量翻一番。所有助学金获得者都加入了“UToledo.UTeach.UTouch the Future”(UT3)计划，该计划为数学和科学教育专业的学生提供广泛的职前临床体验，包括指导、实地体验、全面的学生支持服务，以及涵盖通过K-12和大学合作伙伴实施的头三年教学的入职支持。该项目正在研究是什么激励STEM专业人员追求教师职业生涯。形成性评估与研究相结合，正在探索阻碍潜在新人从事教师职业的障碍。调查的障碍包括对教师职业的常见误解、获得执照所需的时间、人口统计数据，以及是否存在通常激励一个人成为教师的因素。作为UT3的一部分，津贴获得者将有机会获得城市教学体验，有机会在现场大师教师的监督下练习，有机会通过社区服务在非正式环境中体验城市数学和科学教育，并有机会报读包含将技术用作教学工具和将探究作为有效教学策略的教育学课程。
