Launching Science and Math Teachers

Weber State Propel Project

The Weber State University Math and Science Teaching Propel Project provides information, opportunities, and support to individuals exploring and committing to careers in mathematics and science teaching.   If you currently have or are pursuing a STEM degree and are interested in teaching mathematics or science, the Propel Project offers classroom experiences to “try on” teaching and two-year full cost-of-attendance scholarships to secure a mathematics or science teaching endorsement along with your teaching license.  If you are currently a mathematics or science teaching major and would like to learn about early teaching opportunities available to you, the Propel Project can help.
