Undergraduate Student Collaborator, Pedagogical Partner Consultant
Fall 2026
“If we want educational environments that support all students, it is clear that we actually have to involve them in creating those environments - to structure their voices into them.”
- Elena Marcovici (Student Contributor,)

The Center for Teaching and Learning (CTL) is hiring a team of undergraduate student consultants to partner with faculty to improve the teaching and learning experience through the “鶹Ժ as Pedagogical Partners” initiative.

- Pedagogical training about the 鶹Ժ as Partners framework, course design, and equitable teaching and learning approaches.
- Guidance on exercising interdependence, communication, and analytical skillsets.
- Experience in project collaboration, curriculum design, peer-to-peer engagement, and other marketable post-graduation skills
- Experience translating data on student perspectives on AI into actionable changes in the classroom.
