Through a Phase 1 Noyce Teacher Scholarship Track, Long Island University Brooklyn (LIU-B) plays a key role in improving the quality and retention of science teachers in NYC schools that serve large numbers of poor and minority students. LIU-B School of Education (SOE) is well positioned to assist NYC schools in improving science teaching and learning, and it does so through the Scholarship and Excellence in Secondary Science Education (SESSE) program that recruits high-performing underrepresented science majors and prepares them to become high quality science teachers who persist in their teaching careers. A number of faculty from several STEM disciplines participate in the project. The SESSE program targets upper level undergraduate biology and biochemistry majors to become certified to teach in New York City middle and high schools. SESSE provides scholarships and supporting stipends to sixteen minority science students in two Cohorts of 8 each in years 1 and 2 of the project.

通过第一阶段诺伊斯教师奖学金轨道，长岛大学布鲁克林（LIU-B）在提高纽约市学校科学教师的质量和保留率方面发挥着关键作用，这些学校为大量贫困和少数民族学生提供服务。教育（SOE）的LIU-B学校处于有利地位，以协助纽约市学校改善科学教学和学习，它通过奖学金和卓越的中学科学教育（SESSE）计划，招募高性能的代表性不足的科学专业，并准备他们成为高质量的科学教师谁坚持在他们的教学生涯这样做。来自多个STEM学科的多名教师参与了该项目。该SESSE计划的目标是上层本科生物学和生物化学专业成为认证的纽约市初中和高中任教。SESSE在项目的第一年和第二年向16名少数民族理科学生提供奖学金和补助金，分两批，每组8人。
