The California State University, East Bay (CSUEB) Noyce Scholars Program Phase II (NSP II) is building on and expanding Phase I efforts to recruit and support academically successful senior mathematics and science majors and STEM professionals in completing a credential program and becoming highly effective teachers in high needs, urban schools. This four-year joint project, in collaboration with K-12 districts across Alameda and Contra Costa counties, supports 32 new math and science teachers (16 scholarships in year 2 and 16 in year 3) and focuses on two areas: 1) continuing to increase the number of middle and high school math and science teachers obtaining their credentials at CSUEB and 2) informing understanding of how best to attract, prepare, and provide ongoing support in order to retain highly effective STEM teachers by expanded evaluation of program efforts and the effectiveness of participating scholars. The NSP II is significant in its focus on the early recruitment of teacher candidates who are highly qualified in disciplinary areas. The East Bay Area, which includes Alameda and Contra Costa Counties, supports an ethnically and racially diverse population. STEM professionals are in high demand but there are significant shortages in the workforce of those possessing competence in science and math. The future economic health of the region depends increasingly on an educational system capable of preparing teachers to respond successfully to the needs of students who require intensive and effective educational programs in science and math. The Noyce scholars furnish the tools to their students that enable underrepresented groups to be competitive in the workforce.

加州州立大学东湾分校(CSUEB)诺伊斯学者计划第二阶段(NSP II)正在扩大第一阶段的工作，以招聘和支持在学业上取得成功的数学和科学专业高年级学生和STEM专业人员完成证书计划，并成为高需求城市学校的高效教师。这个为期四年的联合项目与阿拉米达县和科斯塔县的K-12学区合作，支持了32名新的数学和科学教师(二年级有16个奖学金，三年级有16个奖学金)，并侧重于两个领域：1)继续增加在CSUEB获得证书的初中和高中数学和科学教师的数量；2)通过扩大对项目努力和参与学者的有效性的评估，让他们了解如何最好地吸引、准备和提供持续支持，以便留住高效的STEM教师。第二个新战略计划的重点是及早招聘在学科领域具有很高资质的教师候选人。东湾区包括阿拉米达县和康特拉科斯塔县，支持着种族和种族多样化的人口。STEM专业人才的需求量很大，但拥有科学和数学能力的劳动力严重短缺。该地区未来的经济健康越来越依赖于一个教育系统，该系统能够让教师做好准备，成功地满足学生的需求，这些学生需要密集而有效的科学和数学教育项目。诺伊斯奖学金获得者向他们的学生提供工具，使代表不足的群体在劳动力中具有竞争力。
