This project funds scholarships for a total of 35 undergraduate STEM students and post-baccalaureate career changers in STEM disciplines to become grades 9 through 12 teachers in high-need urban schools located in New York City. Education and induction of these students is carried out by a partnership involving the Natural Science and the Graduate Education Departments at Fordham University, the Wildlife Conservation Society at the Bronx Zoo, other area informal science centers, and several area school districts. Upon acceptance into the education program, both undergraduate and graduate Scholars are individually paired with an in-service teacher who serves as their mentor while they are in school and through the induction period. Pre-service teachers participate in internships during the summer, and there a variety of internship opportunities open to them. For example they can learn how to motivate students to learn by using animals; they can work with New York in-service teachers who are also interning at informal science sites; and they can develop curriculum that can used in formal and informal science settings. Towards the end of their educational training, the Noyce Scholars participate in a 3-day per week clinical experience in one of the partnership schools. During induction, teachers meet with their mentor in-service teacher, participate in an online e-community site, and attend a retreat at the Zoo.

该项目为STEM学科中的总共35名本科生和后洞的职业改变者提供了奖学金，成为位于纽约市高需求的城市学校的9至12年级教师。 这些学生的教育和入学是由涉及福特汉姆大学自然科学和研究生教育系的合作伙伴关系，布朗克斯动物园的野生动物保护协会，其他地区非正式科学中心和几个地区学区进行的。在接受教育计划后，本科和研究生学者都与一位在职教师一起在学校和入学期间担任导师。职前教师在夏季参加实习，并有各种各样的实习机会。例如，他们可以学习如何通过使用动物来激励学生学习；他们可以与也在非正式科学遗址实习的纽约在纽约教师合作；他们可以开发可以在正式和非正式科学环境中使用的课程。在他们的教育培训结束时，Noyce学者在其中一所合伙学校中每周参加3天的临床经验。在入职期间，教师会见他们的导师在职老师，参加在线电子社区网站，并参加动物园的静修。
