The Math Intern position is an exciting opportunity especially for recent graduates! The position is 30 hours per week during the 30 weeks classes are in session and final exams are being given. The Math Intern is required to take one or two courses within the Department (i.e. either mathematics or computer science) each semester they are employed. This coursework could include Independent Studies. Upon approval, the coursework could occur in other departments (especially in the Natural Sciences Division) for the purposes of supporting interdisciplinary studies.
Essential Responsibilities:
  • Working with students in office hours in the Department on material from MATH 100 (Elementary Functions), MATH 129 (Calculus I with Pre-calculus), MATH 130 (Calculus I) and MATH 131 (Calculus II).
  • If staffing allows it, the Math Intern may also have the opportunity to tutor BIDS 101, MATH 192, MATH 200, MATH 204, MATH 237, and MATH 278.
  • Meeting with the faculty teaching the courses for review and preparation of material.
  • When there are no or few students asking questions during office hours, the Math Intern is also expected to assist the Department in other ways such as designing/updating bulletin boards and organizing student space.

Other Information:
This is a part-time, 9-month, benefits-eligible position. This position description is not all-inclusive as other tasks or responsibilities may be assigned.

  • Experience as a TA or Teaching Fellow, especially in mathematics, is preferred.

Application Instructions
Review of applications will begin April 29th and continue until the position is filled. Interested applicants are encouraged to submit a cover letter, resume and the names with contact information of at least two (2) professional references (for example, people for whom you have TA-ed or faculty who have witnessed your ability to work successfully in groups, etc.).
If you have not had experience TA-ing for a Calculus Lab, or working as a Mathematics Teaching Fellow, ask someone who can attest to your ability to assist student learning to submit a reference letter. Once you submit your application, we will send your reference instructions on how to submit their letter.
International students are welcome to apply. However, if you are earning a mathematics minor and not a mathematics major, you will need to work with faculty in your major department to obtain an approved proposal for a shared position, working roughly 5 hours per week with that department. This is a requirement for your VISA status and the proposal must be received before your application will be considered ready for consideration. Please see Prof. Erika L.C. King for details or to address questions.
