In recognition of the fact that New York schools need to keep their teachers and staff on the cutting edge of their fields, particularly in Math and Science, Polytechnic Institute of NYU is pleased to announce the Scholarship for Education Professionals.

This scholarship entitles anyone teaching or working in a middle school, junior high school, high school or college a 50% tuition scholarship on graduate education at Polytechnic Institute of NYU. This is a tremendous opportunity for teachers who are fulfilling their master's degree requirements or any other employee who is seeking an advanced degree.

In addition, the NYS Dept. of Education is now requiring all science teachers with a BS in science and an MA in education to take 12 additional graduate course credits in the science that they are teaching. For example, all High School Chemistry teachers who do not have a MS in Chemistry will be required take 12 graduate credits.

Anyone wishing to take advantage of this opportunity should go through the normal application process at Polytechnic. Once admitted, they will need to submit proof of employment at a school to be given the scholarship. A letter from the school district is all that is required.
