Job Description:

Dartmouth seniors who are completing our science/pre-health curriculum and who plan a future application to medical/dental/veterinary or graduate school will be eligible to apply for these positions. A major or minor in Biology or Chemistry is not required, though preference would be given to those students. Fellows would participate in courses in their assigned discipline (introductory courses:  Bio 12, 13 or 14 (formerly 30);  Chem 5/6; Chem 51/52) and would work with faculty members to design and execute adjunctive teaching opportunities for all students in the courses (e.g., office hours, tutorials, study groups, practice quizzes/lecture notes, web-based teaching modules). These fellows will also serve as an interface between the individual classes and the tutors/study group leaders of the Academic Skills Center. In this second year of our post-graduate program, the fellows would be expected to participate in a training program this summer and then work together with me as program director and with department faculty to identify, plan and execute new elements of the overall program, including course design under the Gateway Initiative.   Fellows would be paid $35K plus benefits for a one-year appointment.



Professor Lee Witters ([log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>) and the current Fellows in Biology, Natalia Vecerek 14 ([log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>), and in Chemistry, Rui Shu 14 ([log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>), are happy to talk to anyone who might be interested in the program.  ?
