Summer Instructors   

K-12 summer camp and high school class instructors teach one or more weeks during the summer season, depending on their interests and availability. Instructors are typically STEM graduate students or pre-/in-service/retired teachers who are passionate about sharing their STEM expertise with others.


Teaching Assistants   

Science Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµy hires undergraduate Teaching Assistants (TAs) to work alongside instructors in the classroom and provide overall support to K-12 summer camps and high school classes.

Operations and Administrative Staff

Operations and administrative support staff are the backbone of the Science Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµy summer program! Most summer programs have quite a few moving parts, but a campus-based program provides challenges of a different type. Summer support staff serve in roles such as:

  • Registrar
  • and management
  • Materials packing and distribution
  • Medication administration and behavioral needs coordination
  • Camp logistics coordination
