Science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) majors who would not otherwise consider a career in precollege science and mathematics teaching are entering a Master in Teaching (MT) program. Preparation of science and mathematics secondary teachers is via graduate level programs only. The MT program serves as a fifth year program open only to candidates completing the B.S. degree in a STEM discipline with an education core. Partnerships with the Midlands and Orangeburg-Calhoun Technical Colleges enhance the effort to interest freshmen and sophomore STEM majors in undertaking a course of study leading to a STEM degree with teaching certification. Lower division seminar courses for prospective teachers are offered at both the university and the two-year schools. Summer internship opportunities to work with Noyce program faculty in an established summer professional development program for mathematics and science middle school teachers and students are available to STEM majors at all the partnership institutions.The MT program expects to be graduating up to forty one Noyce scholars over the course of the five year project. The resulting highly qualified science and mathematics teachers are committed to teach two years in a high needs school district for each of up to three years of scholarship support received. Five high needs school districts are participating in the project; these are the: Calhoun, Lexington 2, Orangeburg 5, and Richland 1 and 2 County School Districts.

科学，技术，工程和数学（STEM）专业谁不会考虑在预科科学和数学教学的职业生涯正在进入教学硕士（MT）计划。 中学科学和数学教师的培养只能通过研究生课程进行。 MT计划作为第五年的计划只开放给完成学士学位的候选人。以教育为核心的STEM学科学位。 与中部地区和奥兰治堡-卡尔霍恩技术学院的合作伙伴关系加强了对大一和大二STEM专业学生的兴趣，使他们能够通过教学认证获得STEM学位。 大学和两年制学校都为未来的教师提供低年级研讨班。 所有合作机构的STEM专业学生都可以获得与诺伊斯项目教师合作的暑期实习机会，参加针对数学和科学中学教师和学生的暑期专业发展计划。MT计划预计将在五年的项目过程中毕业41名诺伊斯学者。 由此产生的高素质的科学和数学教师致力于教两年的高需求学区的每一个长达三年的奖学金支持收到。 五个高需求学区参加了该项目，它们是：卡尔霍恩、列克星敦2、奥兰治堡5、里奇兰1和2县学区。
