Future Teachers Aided by Grant
Thanks to the work of several Truman faculty from different disciplines, Truman has received a $1.2 million grant to support students interested in becoming high school mathematics and physics teachers.
The Robert Noyce Teacher Scholarship Program, administered through the National Science Foundation, provides generous scholarships to promote the development of K-12 teachers in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) disciplines.
The Truman Noyce Scholarship Program aims to train and certify 20 teachers in both secondary mathematics and physics over the next five years. These teachers will be able to meet a critical demand for high-needs school districts.
The Truman team is led by Ian Lindevald, professor of physics; Susan LaGrassa, chair of mathematics; and Paul Yoder associate professor of education. Interested students should contact one of these professors.
