The University of North Texas (UNT) Science and Mathematics Robert Noyce Scholarships program is training 55 high school science and mathematics teacher candidates and supporting graduates in their early years of teaching in high need school districts, primarily in urban areas of North Texas. The project is being supported by the strong infrastructure of the Teach North Texas program, UNT's replication of the successful UTeach program. UNT is partnering with Fort Worth Independent School District and Denton Independent School District to provide high quality field experiences for teacher candidates and mentoring for beginning teachers. Scholarships are being provided both for senior undergraduates who are majoring in Mathematics, Biology, or Chemistry and for post-baccalaureate students who majored in mathematics or science and are seeking secondary teaching certification. In addition to completing mathematics or science majors, undergraduate students in this program are completing minors in Mathematics and Science Secondary Teaching and are being prepared for the licensure examinations from the Texas Examinations of Educators Standards. Scholarship recipients are being provided with technology toolkits and are being trained to use these toolkits to effectively integrate technology into their classrooms. Support during the induction years includes mentoring by a Master Teacher in the school, mentoring by a University Supervisor that visits the classroom and provides evaluative feedback, and an online mentoring forum that encourages the exchange of ideas on content-specific and pedagogical instructional strategies. The project includes a longitudinal study of the impact of the Noyce Scholarship program on individuals supported under UNT's earlier Robert Noyce Scholarship award.

北德克萨斯大学(UNT)科学和数学罗伯特·诺伊斯奖学金计划正在培训55名高中科学和数学教师候选人，并支持毕业生早年在高需求学区任教，主要是在德克萨斯州北部的城区。该项目得到了德克萨斯州北部教学计划强大的基础设施的支持，这是北德克萨斯大学对成功的UTeach计划的复制。UNT正与沃斯堡独立学区和丹顿独立学区合作，为教师候选人提供高质量的实地经验，并为初任教师提供指导。奖学金既提供给主修数学、生物或化学专业的大四本科生，也提供给主修数学或科学并正在寻求二级教学认证的学士学位后学生。除了完成数学或科学专业之外，该项目的本科生还将完成数学和科学中学教学的辅修课程，并正在为德克萨斯州教育工作者标准考试的执照考试做准备。正在向奖学金获得者提供技术工具包，并正在培训他们使用这些工具包，以便有效地将技术融入他们的课堂。入职期间的支持包括由学校的一名硕士教师提供指导，由一名大学监督员访问教室并提供评价性反馈，以及一个在线指导论坛，该论坛鼓励就具体内容和教学战略交换意见。该项目包括一项关于诺伊斯奖学金计划对获得北大早期罗伯特·诺伊斯奖学金资助的个人的影响的纵向研究。
