Comments: 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 or 6 week Summer Sessions. The respective dates vary among each university but run from May 2011 thru August 2011. At the discretion of individual campuses, Douglass scholar applications may be considered for full or partial year appointments.
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.
