Mathematics and Science Education Noyce Scholars Program

该奖项是根据2009年《美国复苏和再投资法案》(公法111-5)资助的。在该项目的头三年期间，7名理科和5名数学专业的学生将获得奖学金，该项目将培养36名初中和高中STEM教师。一年和两年的奖学金都是可用的。大多数数学专业的学生预计将在本科的最后两年，并将获得两年的奖学金。理科专业的学生可能已经完成了本科学位并获得了一年的奖学金来完成MAT课程，或者是在五年制双专业本科课程的最后两年并获得了两年的奖学金。双专业由理科专业和理科教育专业组成。预计大多数理科学者将报读五年制本科双专业。该大学与北卡罗来纳州社区学院系统建立了合作伙伴关系，并在整个系统内广泛招聘对大学前教学生涯感兴趣的学生。另一个合作伙伴是莱瑟姆临床网络，一个由35个学区组成的网络。34个学区被归类为高需求学区。诺伊斯的学者们正在完成他们在这些主要是农村高需求地区之一的服务要求。学者们通过一个包括虚拟学习社区和面对面指导的入职项目获得作为新教师的支持。

This award is funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009(Public Law 111-5).Seven science and five mathematics majors are being awarded scholarships during each of the first three years of the project leading to the production of thirty-six middle and high school STEM teachers. Both one and two-year scholarships are available. Most mathematics majors are expected be in their last two years as an undergraduate and would receive two-year scholarships. The science majors may have already completed an undergraduate degree and receive a one-year scholarship to complete a MAT program or be in last two years of a five-year double major undergraduate program and receive a two-year scholarship. The double major consists of a science discipline major and a science education major. It is anticipated that most of the science scholars are enrolling in the five-year undergraduate dual major option.The university has a partnership with the North Carolina Community College system and is recruiting extensively throughout system for students interested in a pre-college teaching career. Another partner is the Latham Clinical Network, a thirty-five member network of school districts. Thirty-four of the school districts are classified as high needs districts. The Noyce scholars are completing their service requirements in one of these largely rural high needs districts. The Scholars receive support as new teachers through an induction program that includes a virtual learning community as well as face-to-face mentoring.
