BREES Applications Now Available

The UCLA Center for Excellence in Engineering and Diversity (CEED) is currently accepting applications for our Summer Bridge Review for Enhancing Engineering Students (Summer BREES) program.  BREES is an intensive summer program designed to provide undergraduate CEED students with early exposure to and preparation for core courses.  A facilitator is needed for MATLAB.

Summer BREES, which will be held from September 6th - 16th, 2016, is an intensive summer program designed to provide undergraduate CEED students with early exposure to and preparation for core courses in the engineering pathway.  Through this program, CEED hopes to assist students in gaining sufficient mastery, understanding, and problem solving skills in specific core courses.  This is an excellent opportunity for graduate students looking for experience delivering instruction in a lecture setting!

The responsibilities of the Facilitator include:

  • Preparing for and delivering intensive instruction (in a lecture setting).
  • Facilitating Academic Excellence Workshops (collaborative, problem-solving sessions for students that introduce more challenging material).
  • Preparing and grading homework assignments, class assignments, midterm and final exams.
  • Submitting daily sign-in sheets.

Facilitators must:

  • Be competent in the subject being taught.  Graduate students with TA experience in the courses are preferred.
  • Possess a strong ability to instruct and facilitate students.
  • Possess strong communication skills.

Candidates must be available for on-campus interviews between August 8th - 22nd, 2016.  Once hired, facilitators must be available from August 29th - September 16th for orientation, planning and  program implementation.  The amount of time required for this program will be approximately 30 hours (including lecturing and facilitating workshops).  


Salary will range from $18/hr to $20/hr.  If interested, graduate students should Email a copy of their latest resume or CV to Dr. Audrey Pool O’Neal via E-mail (apool@ucla.edu).  In the Email, also indicate the course you would like to teach.
