Goals
In this session we will share our strategies for successful recruiting of Noyce Scholars. Participants will learn how we built partnerships with regional community and tribal colleges. Additionally we partnered with a local non-profit to teach Social Emotional Learning skills to our Noyce Scholars and we will share ideas from this partnership.
Evidence
Our project recruited 125% of our recruiting goal in Year 1 and 112.5% in Year 2. We collected data from students to discern the most alluring attributes during the recruitment process from the first cohort.
Proposal
In this session we will share our strategies for successful recruiting of Noyce Scholars. Participants will learn how we built partnerships with regional community and tribal colleges. These partnerships found some challenges and many benefits. We also recruited at our own institution and leveraged existing relationships to recruit. Our project collected data from Noyce Scholars to discern the most alluring attributes during the recruitment process from the first cohort. Additionally, we partnered with a local non-profit to teach Social Emotional Learning skills to our Noyce Scholars and we will share ideas from this partnership.
