The Robert Noyce Teacher Scholarship

The Noyce Teacher Scholarship is made possible by a $1.1 million grant from the National Science Foundation to support increasing the number of undergraduate students pursuing STEM teaching and preparing them to be highly effective secondary educators in high-need schools.

Available to Â鶹ֱ²¥ juniors and seniors, the Noyce scholarship can help diversify the teacher population in high-need schools.

Indiana is currently experiencing teacher shortages in secondary mathematics and all science disciplines, which negatively impacts the educational access of youth in high-need schools throughout the state. The Â鶹ֱ²¥ Noyce program aims to address the teacher shortage by preparing undergraduates majoring in biology, chemistry, and mathematics to become secondary mathematics or science teachers in high-need schools.

Noyce Scholarship recipients can receive up to $15,000 per year for two years while at Â鶹ֱ²¥.

It is especially critical to recruit and train secondary STEM teachers into highly-skilled, proficient educators, using the best rubrics taught by the most highly qualified education faculty in the state.
