FREE Post-Conference Workshop
The Robert Noyce Teacher Scholarship Program
2011 ASEE-GSW Annual Conference
Innovating Engineering and
Engineering Technology Education
Dear ASEE-GSW Annual Conference Participants:
The Robert E. Noyce program was established by Congress and is administered through the National Science Foundation with a stated mission of: "The Robert Noyce Teacher Scholarship Program, seeks to encourage talented science, technology, engineering and mathematics majors and professionals to become K-12 mathematics and science teachers." The budget for the Noyce program has grown exponentially in recent years; in 2009 with stimulus funding, the success rate for Noyce was ~75%.

We are offering a ½ day workshop that informs engineering faculty and administrators about working with the K-12 system and about how to successfully prepare a proposal for the Noyce program.  We are offering information that will improve your professional understanding of the Noyce program and upon completion of our workshop you will be able to write competitive grant applications to future cycles of Noyce funding.
This workshop is funded through a grant from the NSF Noyce program and will be led by a former NSF program officer, and engineering faculty who have extensive experience in working with K-12 educators.

If you plan to attend this post-conference workshop on Friday March 11, 2010 from 1-5PM, please send a direct email to me at Fattarzadeh at uh.edu<mailto:Fattarzadeh at uh.edu>. Please reply to me by Thursday December 9, 2010
