Who is eligible to receive a New York State Math & Science Teaching Incentive award?
• A student who is attending a New York State school at an undergraduate or graduate level, and has been in full-time attendance (minimum of 12 credits per semester). In addition the student must have earned at least 27 credit hours or the equivalent during the academic year in a course of study leading to a secondary education degree in the fields of math or science. Note: Applicants may attend less than full-time during their last undergraduate term if less than a full-time course load is necessary to complete their degree. • They must be matriculated in an approved undergraduate or graduate program at a degree granting institution leading to a career as a math or science teacher in secondary education. The requirements are the same for both undergraduate and graduate students.
