Four cohorts each consisting of four undergraduate STEM majors are being offered annual scholarships of $12,000 for up to three years to complete the STEM baccalaureate degree and receive secondary teacher certification. Five cohorts of three individuals already possessing a STEM degree are receiving one year scholarships of $10,000 each to gain teaching certification via the Alternate Licensure program. Over the five year project period a total of 77 one year scholarships are being awarded to 31 individuals. Each year five summer internships are available to lower division undergraduates to actively participate in the organization, planning and implementation of informal science outreach activities with the aim of attracting these students into a teaching career.Currently the institution produces about 8 science teachers a year through the regular teacher education program and about 4 science teachers a year through the alternative licensure program. This project is having a broad impact on the number of science teachers produced who are able to teach primarily in the rural areas of New Mexico. These teachers provide high quality science education to at least 500 students annually and infuse the cadre of STEM teachers with highly trained individuals grounded in both content and pedagogical knowledge who provide junior high and high school students the opportunity to participate in inquiry-based, experiential learning.

四个班级每组由四个 STEM 专业本科生组成，每年将获得 12,000 美元的奖学金，为期三年，以完成 STEM 学士学位并获得中学教师认证。 五组已拥有 STEM 学位的三人将获得每人 10,000 美元的一年奖学金，以便通过备用执照计划获得教学认证。 在五年项目期间，共有 77 名一年期奖学金颁发给了 31 名个人。 每年有5个暑期实习机会供低年级本科生积极参与非正式科学推广活动的组织、策划和实施，旨在吸引这些学生从事教学职业。目前该机构每年通过培养科学教师约8名。常规教师教育计划，每年约有 4 名科学教师通过替代执照计划。该项目对能够主要在新墨西哥州农村地区教学的科学教师的数量产生了广泛的影响。这些教师每年为至少 500 名学生提供高质量的科学教育，并为 STEM 教师队伍注入训练有素的内容和教学知识的人员，为初中和高中学生提供参与探究式体验式学习的机会。
