Thirty one students in Biology Education and Mathematics Education programs are receiving annual scholarships of $10,000 during their junior and senior years. Current best practices in recruitment strategies, pre-service training, and retention strategies for new teachers are utilized. The program also emphasizes professional engagement by early involvement in professional organizations through attendance at state and regional workshops. An attempt is made to interest students in teaching as early as possible so that they can shape experiential learning around gaining insight into the nature and problems of teaching. Under the direction of a Noyce program mentor, students can choose service learning projects, internships, or undergraduate research opportunities to enhance their awareness of teaching. As part of the effort, fifty high school students annually are invited to attend a three day summer camp intended to involve and motivate them toward a STEM major and a possible career in teaching. Student teaching and fulfillment of the Noyce scholars' service obligations are primarily occurring in the Alpine, Nebo and Provo school districts. These high need school districts have been experiencing extreme difficulty in hiring sufficient number of qualified mathematics and science teachers.

生物教育和数学教育项目的 31 名学生在大三和大四期间每年获得 10,000 美元的奖学金。 采用当前在招聘策略、职前培训和新教师保留策略方面的最佳实践。该计划还强调通过参加州和地区研讨会尽早参与专业组织的专业参与。我们试图尽早让学生对教学产生兴趣，以便他们能够围绕深入了解教学的本质和问题来塑造体验式学习。在诺伊斯项目导师的指导下，学生可以选择服务学习项目、实习或本科生研究机会来增强教学意识。 作为这项努力的一部分，每年都会邀请 50 名高中生参加为期三天的夏令营，旨在吸引和激励他们选择 STEM 专业并从事可能的教学职业。 学生教学和诺伊斯学者服务义务的履行主要发生在阿尔卑斯、尼波和普罗沃学区。 这些高需求学区在聘请足够数量的合格数学和科学教师方面遇到了极大的困难。
