The partnership between the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) and the Chicago Public Schools (CPS) has demonstrated an increasing ability to recruit, prepare and retain well qualified, content-rich science and mathematics teachers (career changers and undergraduates) in high-need schools. This Phase II Noyce project continues work begun in the previous Noyce grant with secondary mathematics teacher candidates and expands its potential impact with the addition of an enhanced mentor program for new Noyce recipients. This new mentor program involves previous Noyce awardees and inducts new ones into a Noyce mentoring network. Second, the project extends the Noyce applicant pool by adding three new science certifications and introducing a one-year M.Ed. program option for secondary science, which is available for secondary science teacher candidates in biology, earth and space science, environmental science, chemistry and physics. The project supports the recruitment and retention of career-changers with strong STEM backgrounds and STEM undergraduates who want to teach in high-need areas in CPS. These goals will be attained by awarding stipends based on academic merit, with attention to diversifying the teacher workforce and a commitment to serving high-need schools. Over a three-year period the UIC-CPS Noyce II project is offering 40 recruitment stipends to students in UIC STEM secondary teacher preparation programs who commit to teaching in Chicago Public Schools. New teachers have the opportunity to conduct action research during their induction phase as they work to construct a defensible and inclusive practice.

伊利诺伊大学芝加哥分校（UIC）和芝加哥公立学校（CPS）之间的合作表明，在高需求学校招聘、准备和留住合格、内容丰富的科学和数学教师（转行者和本科生）方面，他们的能力越来越强。Noyce项目的第二阶段继续了之前Noyce资助项目中针对中学数学教师候选人开展的工作，并扩大了其潜在影响，为新的Noyce受助人增加了一个强化的导师计划。这个新的导师项目包括以前的Noyce获奖者，并将新获奖者引入Noyce指导网络。其次，该项目增加了三个新的科学认证，并引入了一年制的硕士学位，从而扩大了Noyce申请人的范围。中学科学的课程选择，适用于生物、地球与空间科学、环境科学、化学和物理的中学科学教师候选人。该项目支持招聘和留住具有强大STEM背景的职业转换者和希望在CPS高需求领域任教的STEM本科生。为了实现这些目标，将根据学业成绩发放津贴，同时注重教师队伍的多样化，并致力于为高需求学校服务。在为期三年的时间里，UIC- cps Noyce II项目将为致力于在芝加哥公立学校教学的UIC STEM中学教师准备项目的学生提供40份招聘津贴。新教师在入职阶段有机会进行行动研究，因为他们正在努力构建一个可辩护和包容性的实践。
