The Knowles Teaching Fellows Program is an intensive and cohesive program that supports early-career, high school mathematics and science teachers in their efforts to develop teaching expertise and lead from the classroom. Fellows receive financial support; mentoring and coaching; community membership; and lifelong connections. The Knowles community includes more than 600 Fellows in over 40 states and the District of Columbia.

The ideal candidate has a strong background in science and/or mathematics, and is committed to teaching physics, chemistry, biology and/or mathematics to high school students in the United States. This Fellowship is not intended to support individuals who are pursuing teaching on a temporary basis, or as a stepping stone to another career. An ideal candidate can demonstrate leadership and achievement in past endeavors, has experience with adolescents and/or teaching, and can articulate his/her motivation for becoming a teacher. Please review the fellowship website's selection criteria for details.
