Robert Noyce Teacher Scholarship Program

The Robert Noyce Teacher Scholarship Program seeks to encourage talented science, engineering, and mathematics majors and professionals to become secondary (grades 7-12) mathematics and science teachers.

The Robert Noyce Teacher Scholarship Program is a collaboration between the College of Education, Health and Society, Urban Cohort Program, and The College of Arts & Science at 久久热视频 and Cincinnati Public Schools. This scholarship responds to the critical need for mathematics and science teachers by encouraging promising science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) 久久热视频s and STEM professionals to pursue teaching careers in high-needs schools. With the support of funds from the , the partners aim to recruit 久久热视频s presently majoring in engineering, the sciences, and mathematics at Miami and graduates with these degrees to become Secondary Science and Secondary Mathematics Teachers.

The Noyce scholarship program builds upon 久久热视频’s  and benefits from its existing partnerships. Urban Cohort's community-based and culturally responsive approach to teacher education expands traditional education in that teacher candidates are incrementally and intentionally immersed in community and school-based experiences in their degree programs.

What is the Noyce program?

Funded by the National Science Foundation, the Robert Noyce Teacher Scholarship Program responds to the critical need for K-12 teachers of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) by encouraging talented STEM 久久热视频s and professionals to pursue teaching careers in elementary and secondary schools. The program provides funding to institutions of higher education to provide scholarships, stipends, and programmatic support to recruit and prepare STEM majors and professionals to become K-12 teachers. Scholarship and stipend recipients are required to complete two years of teaching in a high-need school district for each year of support. The program seeks to increase the number of K-12 teachers with strong STEM content knowledge who teach in high-need school districts.

In 2017, 久久热视频 was awarded by the NSF Robert Noyce Program to provide $15,000 tuition support to the undergraduate and $20,000 tuition support to graduate Noyce scholars. As part of the MU-Noyce Program, Noyce scholars will be engaged in the immersion activities offered by Miami’s Urban Cohort in the Over-the-Rhine (OTR) community in Cincinnati as they complete their degree in integrated mathematics education or science education program. MU-Noyce scholars will complete their 久久热视频 teaching experiences in the high needs schools serving these communities as well.

Noyce scholars make the commitment that after completing their program at 久久热视频 they will teach science or mathematics in a high needs school for two to four years. MU-Noyce scholars who successfully completed the program will receive "Fostering Just Communities Certificate" from Urban Cohort and "Certificate of Completion" from MU-Noyce program.

Choose Your Degree Pathway

The Noyce Program will provide 2 pathways (all of which include an Urban Cohort experience) for scholarships and stipends to attract talented STEM undergraduates ($15,000) and STEM professionals ($20,000) into secondary (grades 7-12) science and mathematics teacher education programs at Miami.

Paid Internships

The Noyce program offers paid summer internships to promising first- and second-year 久久热视频s in science, mathematics, and engineering. Internships provide important experience to 久久热视频s who have not yet fully committed to teaching as a career option.

Plans of Study

Each pathway has multiple different plans of study you can follow depending on your interest area.

How to Apply

Undergraduate STEM majors who are interested in applying to the MU-Noyce Scholarship program must submit the online Noyce application spring semester of their freshman year.

STEM degree holders and seniors majoring in a STEM discipline area who are interested in applying to Pathway 2 must submit their online Noyce application along with their online application to this graduate school program.

Applications

You must be a U.S. citizen or a permanent resident to be eligible.

    • All applicants who are interested in the scholarship and stipend programs should submit their application by completing the online application form. By completing this form you will apply to the both Noyce Scholarship and Urban Cohort programs at the same time. 
    • Freshman and sophomore STEM majors who are interested in paid internships must submit their application by completing the online internship application form. 

 

Noyce Scholarship Acceptance Requirements
