Your Gateway to UnlimitedOpportunities
for Personal Success.
Langston University is widely known in Oklahoma for its production of highly diverse STEM professionals. Through a Robert Noyce STEM Teacher Scholarship program funded by the National Science Foundation, Langston is now poised to increase its production of new STEM teachers who excel in STEM core content knowledge, and whose skill sets support high quali-ty learning experiences for their students. Langston’s relatively small size, closely knit faculty-student relationships, and historical contribution to the education of students all contribute to an environment that supports successful outcomes for our students. Our Noyce program’s focus is to help you successfully complete your undergraduate degree in a STEM major and as a licensed STEM secondary teacher. We have a vested interest in your success, and will assist you at every step in the process. The absence of a signi cant number of active high achieving, diverse, and caring STEM teachers cre-ates a knowledge vacuum among students that is di cult to overcome. We at Langston know the im-pact rsthand. However, we know that Langston scholars are great achievers, and through this Noyce program, you are poised to become the solution to the problem. See you on campus.
