This collaboration not only benefits students but also helps SIs develop valuable communication and leadership skills, which can open doors to future academic or professional advancement.

Job description

We value our students! If you see an open position that is right for you, we encourage you to apply!
Undergraduate Peer Educators are the tutors and SIs who work with Chatham students to help them master the course content.
Tutors are peer educators who meet with students for one-on-one sessions and can help with any manner of class-related concern. This can be something as simple as reviewing a topic or going over some homework confusion to helping them brainstorm a larger project or review for a test. Tutors always meet with students individually and will tailor the session to what the student needs at the time.
Supplemental Instructor Leaders are peer educators who hold regularly scheduled review sessions where they go over the content that their assigned class discussed that week. These peer educators will (if their schedule allows) sit in on their assigned class so they can see specifically what the instructor has gone over that week and then hold review sessions during a separate time. Supplemental Instruction sessions are open to any student who is enrolled in the class, and are done in a group format. Supplemental Instruction Leaders can help students with individual needs, but their main goal is to review content on a regular basis. Supplemental Instruction Leaders tend to work more closely with the instructors.
NOTE: These positions are largely filled by pre-selected students. This is a.26-27 academic year position.
All current student employees should notify their other manager(s) if you work multiple jobs on campus at the same time. Additionally, students may not work more than 20 hours per week (combined between all campus jobs) during the academic year. Students may not exceed 980 work hours per calendar year.
Student jobs do not automatically roll over to the next academic year or summer.
Chatham University strives to promote a campus environment that understands and embraces multiculturalism while increasing individuals' intercultural competence. We actively work to build and sustain a diverse and culturally vibrant campus, which promotes employee and student success and retention.
Chatham University is an Equal Opportunity Employer with a strong commitment to diversity, inclusion, and equity.
