It is funded through a National Science Foundation grant, which was awarded to PRNP to fund scholarships in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) teaching programs at Arcadia University, Saint Joseph’s University, Temple University, La Salle University, and Bryn Mawr College.

Please note PRNP-S is contingent upon acceptance into a graduate program as a:
- Current undergraduate who will apply to the Early Entry Master's Program with the School of Education.
- Post-Baccalaureate student who will apply directly to a graduate teacher certification program in General Science, Biology, Chemistry, and Mathematics. Coursework completed in the certification program can be applied to a Master's degree.
Recipients must commit to:
- Completing the teacher preparation program and meeting the exit requirements.
- Teaching for two years in a high-need school district, or the scholarship becomes a repayable loan. Recipients have up to four years to fulfill their Noyce teaching obligation before the scholarship reverts to a loan.
We believe that the field of STEM education benefits greatly when teachers reflect the diversity of those they teach. We highly value diversity and encourage minorities and members of under-represented groups to apply.
