| The MIT Introduction to Technology, Engineering, and Science (MITES) office in the School of Engineering boasts a 40+ year history of providing engaging and rigorous science and engineering education enrichment for 350 middle and high school students from our local community and across the country. Our mission focuses on making science and engineering careers more accessible to students from underserved and underrepresented communities.
The MITES Instructor plays a critical role in working towards the program’s goal of developing a cohort of “thinking minds” equipped to be successful in technical fields and at the country’s top colleges and universities. The Instructor is responsible for creating and implementing all course curriculum related to a particular college level course (2-3 times per week). Instructors will maintain an open and positive learning environment and prepare interactive lessons and course materials that promote active learning and challenge all students. Throughout the program, instructors are expected to assess student performance/academic needs and provide resources to help promote student’s success. At the end of the program, instructors will document course materials and write narrative evaluations of each student. Instructors provide guidance and mentorship, playing a critical role in each student’s experience.
We are seeking instructors for a variety of math-related topics and there is flexibility in terms of the curriculum designed. There are both in-person and remote roles available. The position requires a Bachelor's Degree (some graduate level coursework is preferred depending on the topic taught).
