Scholarship and Excellence in Secondary Science Education (SESSE)

通过第一阶段Noyce教师奖学金项目，长岛大学布鲁克林分校（LIU-B）在提高纽约市学校科学教师的质量和保留方面发挥了关键作用，这些学校为大量贫困和少数民族学生提供服务。刘- b教育学院（SOE）有能力帮助纽约市的学校改善科学教学和学习，它通过中学科学教育奖学金和卓越（SESSE）计划来实现这一目标，该计划招募表现优异、代表性不足的科学专业学生，并培养他们成为坚持教学生涯的高质量科学教师。来自多个STEM学科的许多教师参与了该项目。SESSE计划的目标是高级本科生物和生物化学专业的学生获得在纽约市初中和高中教学的认证。SESSE在项目的第一年和第二年为16名少数民族理科生提供奖学金和支持津贴，每组8人。

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.
