How Can I Get Involved?

Featured

Become a Mentor

You will be assigned directly to a student who will provide self-reflection pre-work for your review.

Approximate Time Commitment: At least one 2-hour meeting with your student. You may choose to continue meeting if there is mutual interest.

Live Career Discussion

Join a live web-meeting to share your career journey and advice with students from across the entire program. The recording will be made available for the benefit of future students.

Approximate Time Commitment: 1 hour

Teach Online or in a Classroom

Join a virtual team of industry volunteers to work directly with the Lead Professor at a participating university:

Team-teach online live (or on-campus if near a school offering the program). Use our pre-developed slides and listen to the recorded class to prepare for your session with students.

May organize live career discussion web-meetings with the students

Approximate Time Commitment: 2-6 hours per month (can be more or less based on your interests)

Industry Grading Team

Join a virtual team of industry volunteers to work directly with Universities to help grade assignments and exams for professors leading the Quality Science Education Program for academic credit.

The virtual team will rotate grading assignments throughout the semester (answer key and brief training provided)

Approximate Time Commitment: 5 hours per month

Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach him how to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.
