With funding from the National Science Foundation's Robert Noyce Teacher Scholarship program, the Preparing Secondary Teachers of Mathematics and Science in Rural Districts project will recruit undergraduate majors in biology, chemistry, earth science, mathematics, and physics and prepare them to become secondary science and mathematics teachers. This Track 1 project will fund 34 scholarships over 5 years. In this project, Morehead State University (MSU) will collaborate with Carter, Fleming, and Rowan County School Districts in Kentucky and the Bronx, New York New World High School. The project is designed to increase the number of undergraduate STEM majors becoming highly effective secondary STEM teachers in the high-need districts of rural Eastern Kentucky.MSU Noyce Scholars will engage in the rigorous MSUTeach curriculum, replicating the successful UTeach model. Scholars will collaborate with secondary teachers and MSU faculty on designing and implementing a cross-cultural STEM Speaker Series for high school students. Select Noyce Scholars will participate in a one week onsite clinical experience with students, faculty, and staff of the New World High School. Beyond financial assistance, MSU Noyce Scholars will benefit from 1) the collegiality and educative effects of participating in a Noyce cohort, 2) participation in cross-cultural experiences to develop knowledge of economic and cultural challenges related to STEM development in high-need areas, and 3) the opportunity to become a leader in larger regional STEM initiatives.

在国家科学基金会罗伯特·诺伊斯教师奖学金项目的资助下，农村地区准备中学数学和科学教师项目将招募生物学，化学，地球科学，数学和物理学的本科专业，并为他们成为中学科学和数学教师做好准备。这个第一轨道项目将在5年内资助34个奖学金。在这个项目中，莫尔黑德州立大学（MSU）将与肯塔基州的卡特、弗莱明和罗文县学区以及纽约的布朗克斯新世界高中合作。该项目旨在增加本科STEM专业的数量，成为肯塔基州东部农村高需求地区的高效中学STEM教师。MSU诺伊斯学者将参与严格的MSUTeach课程，复制成功的UTeach模式。学者将与中学教师和密歇根州立大学教师合作，为高中生设计和实施跨文化STEM演讲系列。选择诺伊斯学者将参加为期一周的现场临床经验与学生，教师和新世界高中的工作人员。 除了财政援助，MSU诺伊斯学者将受益于1）参与诺伊斯队列的合议性和教育效果，2）参与跨文化经验，以发展与高需求领域的STEM发展相关的经济和文化挑战的知识，以及3）成为更大的区域STEM计划领导者的机会。
