With funding from the National Science Foundation's Robert Noyce Teacher Scholarship program, the Preparing Secondary Teachers of Mathematics and Science in Rural Districts project will recruit undergraduate majors in biology, chemistry, earth science, mathematics, and physics and prepare them to become secondary science and mathematics teachers. This Track 1 project will fund 34 scholarships over 5 years. In this project, Morehead State University (MSU) will collaborate with Carter, Fleming, and Rowan County School Districts in Kentucky and the Bronx, New York New World High School. The project is designed to increase the number of undergraduate STEM majors becoming highly effective secondary STEM teachers in the high-need districts of rural Eastern Kentucky.MSU Noyce Scholars will engage in the rigorous MSUTeach curriculum, replicating the successful UTeach model. Scholars will collaborate with secondary teachers and MSU faculty on designing and implementing a cross-cultural STEM Speaker Series for high school students. Select Noyce Scholars will participate in a one week onsite clinical experience with students, faculty, and staff of the New World High School. Beyond financial assistance, MSU Noyce Scholars will benefit from 1) the collegiality and educative effects of participating in a Noyce cohort, 2) participation in cross-cultural experiences to develop knowledge of economic and cultural challenges related to STEM development in high-need areas, and 3) the opportunity to become a leader in larger regional STEM initiatives.

在美国国家科学基金会罗伯特·诺伊斯教师奖学金项目的资助下，“农村地区中学数学和科学教师培养项目”将招收生物学、化学、地球科学、数学和物理专业的本科生，为他们成为中学科学和数学专业做好准备老师们。该轨道 1 项目将在 5 年内资助 34 项奖学金。在该项目中，莫尔黑德州立大学 (MSU) 将与肯塔基州的卡特县、弗莱明县和罗文县学区以及纽约州布朗克斯区的新世界高中合作。该项目旨在增加肯塔基州东部农村高需求地区的 STEM 专业本科生数量，成为高效的中学 STEM 教师。MSU 诺伊斯学者将参与严格的 MSUTeach 课程，复制成功的 UTeach 模式。学者们将与中学教师和密歇根州立大学教师合作，为高中生设计和实施跨文化 STEM 演讲系列。选定的诺伊斯学者将与新世界高中的学生、教职员工一起参加为期一周的现场临床体验。 除了经济援助外，密歇根州立大学诺伊斯学者还将受益于 1) 参与诺伊斯队列的合作和教育效果，2) 参与跨文化体验，以了解与高需求地区 STEM 发展相关的经济和文化挑战， 3) 有机会成为更大区域 STEM 计划的领导者。
