A $16.7 million grant was awarded by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation to the Woodrow Wilson Fellowship Foundation, with the purpose of establishing a state wide teaching fellowship program in Michigan.
The goal of this new fellowship is to provide highly qualified math and science teachers to high need middle and high schools. The fellow candidates can include college seniors, recent graduates, or those changing careers, such as engineers or other professionals.
The Fellows will be announced in 2011, and will receive a $30,000 stipend to complete the program. Recipients must commit to teach in one of Michigan’s high need schools for 3 years.
