The Robert Noyce Teacher Scholar Program
The University of California San Diego Education Studies Noyce Scholarship Program enhances secondary mathematics and science teaching in San Diego County public K-12 schools and beyond. The program recruits high achieving STEM majors from the UCSD undergraduate degrees of mathematics, biology, chemistry, physics, geoscience, and management sciences. Up to 16 scholarships will be awarded each year. The scholarship program is embedded within UCSD's CalTeach program.
Recruitment efforts of the CalTeach program are to support high achieving STEM majors who are committed to making a difference in the lives of diverse children in San Diego County public schools. The courses in the minors and the hands-on experiences you will gain in local schools will provide you with important preparation to become a teacher when you enroll in a credential program after you complete your bachelor’s degree. Once in the UCSD EDS Single Subject credential program you will gain the skills and expertise to guide young learners towards their own academic goals.
Activities focus on three areas: recruitment, support and retention. This program seeks to recruit the best and the brightest from our STEM majors. Once in the program you will be nurtured within a close cohort based experience as you learn the art and science of teaching. All CalTeach participants engage in extensive K-12 classroom experiences under the mentorship of outstanding veteran teachers. Once our scholars graduate and take charge of their own classrooms, they return to the CalTeach program as mentors and advisers for our new participants.
