University of South Carolina undergraduate students pursuing degrees in science, technology, education and mathematics (STEM) can earn a $300 stipend when they complete EDSE 210, a one credit-hour elective in which students work in a local high school math and science classroom to explore teaching as a career.

Interested students should register for the spring 2015 EDSE 210 class by Friday, January 16 and plan to attend the first class meeting January 16 from 2:30 - 3:20 p.m. in Wardlaw College room 109.

The stipend is offered by the Robert Noyce Scholarship Program, which responds to the critical need for K-12 STEM teachers by encouraging talented STEM students and professionals to pursue teaching careers in elementary and secondary schools.
