FDI Summer
Teaching Scholars Program
The Pennsylvania State
System of Higher Education (PASSHE) is offering summer teaching opportunities to
graduate students entering the final year of terminal degree and doctoral
programs and preparing to be college teachers. These summer teaching positions
are available at various PASSHE universities throughout the state of
Pennsylvania. Selected scholars will teach and/or co-teach one course during one
of the two 5-week Summer Sessions. The respective dates vary among each
university but run from May 19, 2008 thru August 2008.
In keeping with the spirit of Douglass’ life of
public service, the Frederick Douglas Teaching Scholars Summer Program is
designed to provide graduate students teaching experiences and potential
employment opportunities within university settings that are strongly committed
to cultural diversity. The Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education is an
Equal Opportunity Employer. We encourage applications from diverse candidates,
especially candidates from historically under-represented groups who will enrich
the cultural diversity of our Universities.
Minimum
requirements are: Applicants must be U.S. citizens. Enrollment into a
doctoral program required and ABD or current doctorate degree preferred;
academic background in one of the fields taught; and at least three favorable
letters of recommendation from faculty or professionals in the student's field,
including the student's advisor. Preferred: experience teaching or as teaching
assistant. Scholars will be compensated as adjunct faculty, according to each
university's collective bargaining agreement. Scholars may be expected to reside
in on-campus residences or housing in an apartment that may be provided at no
charge and to participate in campus activities.
The appointment is for the scholar alone, not
families, and scholars should have their own transportation.
Priority consideration given to completed applications postmarked by November
16, 2007.
You must submit
your application and all required materials to the university of your choice
directly. You may apply to more than one university if you so choose. Copies of
transcripts will be accepted during the application review and interview
process, but OFFICIAL transcripts are
REQUIRED PRIOR TO FINAL APPOINTMENT.
