Robert Noyce Program for Recruiting and Educating STEM Teachers with Integrated Graduate Enrollment (PRESTIGE) at Augusta State University

这个第一阶段的项目支持奥古斯塔州立大学（ASU）的“综合研究生招生STEM教师招聘和教育计划”（PRESTIGE）。PRESTIGE与附近的四个农村“高需求”县学区合作，创建了一个综合教学艺术硕士（IMAT）项目，这些学区有能力雇用毕业的诺伊斯学者。PRESTIGE的毕业生将在5年内获得STEM内容领域的学士学位（bs）和教学艺术硕士学位（MAT），然后被安置在农村的高需求学校任教。PRESTIGE是一个新项目，旨在激发学生通过IMAT项目获得K-12教师资格认证的愿望，为该项目招募最优秀的本科STEM专业学生，并将这些毕业生安置在高需求的农村学校。该项目以生物、化学、数学和物理专业的学生为目标，在5年的资助期内创建了三个小组，以确保培养出18名高质量的中学STEM教师。

This Phase I project supports the Program for Recruiting and Educating STEM Teachers with Integrated Graduate Enrollment (PRESTIGE) at Augusta State University (ASU). PRESTIGE creates an Integrated Master of Arts in Teaching (IMAT) program in partnership with four nearby rural, "high-need" county school districts with capacity to hire graduated Noyce scholars. PRESTIGE graduates will earn a Bachelor's Degree (B.S.) in a STEM content area and a Master's of Arts in Teaching (MAT) in a 5-year period, then be placed in a rural, high-need school to teach. PRESTIGE is a new program designed to generate student desire to attain K-12 teacher certification through the IMAT program, to recruit the best qualified undergraduate STEM majors for the program, and to place these graduates in high-need rural schools. It targets students in Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics and Physics, creating three cohorts over the course of five years of funding to ensure the production of 18 high quality Secondary STEM teachers.
