Student Employment
If you are interested in any of these positions, please contact Professor Myers (x6516, anmyers@brynmawr.edu). You can also fill out our application for employment.
Homework Sets:
Homework Graders: These students grade homework sets.
Problem Session Holders: These students hold problem sessions in which they help students in the class understand mathematical concepts. They answer specific questions from the homework sets.
Peer-Led Instructors: These students hold sessions in which they help students understand mathematical concepts from the class. PLI sessions, however, are different from problem sessions, because the peer-led instructor cannot help with specific questions from the homework.
Math Labs:
SPSS/Mathematica Graders: These students grade SPSS lab assignments and/or Mathematica lab assignments.
Mathematica Lab Assistants: These students supervise lab hours in Park 354 that are targeted towards specific classes. They are available for questions relevant to the program(s) used in the lab assignments for a specific class.
SPSS Lab Assistants: These students supervise lab hours in Guild. They are available for questions relevant to the program(s) used in the lab assignments for a specific class.
Open Lab Hours Supervisors: These students supervise lab hours in Park 354 that are not geared towards any one class. In general, they are not meant to answer specific questions about lab assignments.
Tutors/Trig Mini Course:
Private Tutors: These students are employed by the Dean's Office. They are paired up with a student for one-on-one help.
Senior Tutor: This student organizes the private tutors. When a student goes to the Dean's Office requesting a tutor, they are put in contact with the Senior Tutor who matches them with an appropriate private tutor.
Trig Mini-Course Instructors: These students hold a four-part, mini-course near the beginning of the semester which reviews the Unit Circle, Trig Identities, and Graphs of Trig Functions.
A great way to start on a career path is to do a mathematically related (paid!) summer internship. Here are some examples of student experiences from recent summers:
