SEA CIRTL Fellows Program

Teaching Opportunity and Summer $

We are piloting a new opportunity for graduate students in the College of Engineering and Information Technology (COEIT) that are interested in being a CIRTL Fellow for the Summer Enrichment Academy (SEA) at UMBC. SEA provides one-week camps for middle and high school students on the UMBC Campus. These camps help kids to stay engaged, have fun learning STEM, and get excited about UMBC.

 These SEA CIRTL Fellows will develop and implement a 1-week course for the SEA in an engineering topic of their choice with guided mentorship in Fall 2022 and Spring 2023, and implement the course with SEA in summer of 2023. Fellows will be required to attend a variety of sessions that help them solidify course ideas, learn about teaching approaches that are accessible and engaging for high school and middle school students, and plan their course. This will all count toward a CIRTL certificate, which is a nationally recognized teaching certificate! Upon teaching the course in Summer 2023, Fellows will be paid a minimum of $700/week for 1 or 2 weeks, with an opportunity for more depending on enrollment for the course. 

Note: Courses are run as half day camps for a week (5 days), and Fellows will be able to choose two weeks of these four options : June 26-30, July 10-14, July 17-21, July 24-28.   

Please complete this form by October 18, 2022.
