Job description

Explore Engineering Innovation is based on an introductory engineering course taught to undeclared freshmen engineering students at JHU. EEI covers a range of fundamental engineering topics including materials science, computer science, civil, mechanical, and chemical engineering. The course includes lectures but focuses on hands-on lab experiments and group data analysis. Graded coursework includes lab reports, homework assignments, a group presentation, and a design project. At the end of the course, students who pass the course receive JHU credit for the course. Ultimately, the goal of the course is to expose students to engineering principles, allow them to apply the math and science they learn in high school to solving real world problems, and to help students develop critical thinking skills.
Each class of EEI consists of 16-24 students with diverse academic backgrounds. Each class is typically team-taught by a PhD-level engineer and a high school teacher who teaches a STEM discipline. Select sections of EEI also have assigned to them a Teaching Assistant (TA). We are seeking a Teaching Assistant - EEI - Online who will support the teaching efforts of the Instructor and Teaching Fellow.
Specific Duties & Responsibilities
  • Must be present and available during the entire course. This includes the daily synchronous 3-hour session as well as time to coordinate with the teaching team, grade student submissions, check student messages daily, and hold occasional study sessions.
