The Lion's Roar Scholarship Program

The Lion’s Roar Program has been designed to provide future math and science teachers with an integrated support network throughout their training and early career.

The National Science Foundation Robert Noyce Scholarship Program is designed to attract STEM majors with an aptitude and passion for math and science into K-12 teaching, and provide them with the skills and support they need to become effective teachers. Over the next 5 years 36 scholarships in the amount of $20,000 annually will be made available to talented juniors and seniors in the College of Science and Engineering. Noyce scholars will receive a one-year $20,000 Scholarship (with possible renewal for a second year) toward the cost of attendance at LMU.
