TA Position for Alumni, Department of Epidemiology
Category : Alumni
The Department of Epidemiology is hiring a TA to join the EPI 539 teaching team with Dr. Lauren Christiansen-Lindquist. This is a second semester EPI course for students outside our department, and provides an opportunity for students to dig deeper into the methods that they learned in their first semester of EPI methods, with a focus on causality.
The TA would lead an in-person lab session from 8:30-9:50am on Mondays (beginning 1/23), and a weekly 50-minute Zoom office hour. If available, they would be welcome to attend our in-person class (in the new building!) on Wednesdays from 10-11:50am; however, lectures will be recorded should the TA need to catch up on anything later.
Additional responsibilities include:
- Attending a weekly team meeting – no longer than 30 minutes
- Grading weekly homework assignments and entering grades in Canvas
- Updating materials to review homework answers and recap the main lecture points each week
- Pre-testing the midterm
- Assisting in grading midterm & final project
- Working with the instructor to identify new and innovative ways to engage the students during lab and/or lecture
If you are interested in this position, please email Dr. Christiansen-Lindquist (LCLindquist [at] emory [dot] edu) with an updated resume/CV and a brief description of any relevant experience.
This position comes with a $3600 stipend, which will likely be disbursed in two installments at the middle and end of the semester.
