Deadline is December 01, 2024 for Spring 2025 Employment Undergraduate Grader and Undergraduate Instructor Application
Applicants must be enrolled undergraduate students at Indiana University; graduate students are not eligible. Applicants must be math majors or have a strong math background, preferably including M301 or M303 and M311. At a minimum, applicants must have taken M211 and M212, or the equivalent, with very good grades. We do need a number of UGIs to assist M118 sections. If you have done well in your M118 classes, you are welcome to apply for a math UGI as well.
Please fill out this form and click submit once you have completed each entry. Application Form should take 5-10 minutes to complete.
UGIs may spend up to 8-10 hours per week assisting for an undergraduate math course, UGGs may spend up to 5-8 hours per week grading for an undergraduate math course: job descriptions. You must not exceed 16 hours/week without the express consent of your instructor. NOTE: Each UGI/UGG must attend a training session with DUS each term. The Zoom session with take place the evening of January 13th, the first day of classes for Spring. A background check and I-9 will be requested through HireRight. Please make sure you bring your proof of employability to the Mathematics Department no later than January 15th. You will be receiving two separate emails from HireRight.
The position is for one semester; however, there is no limit to the number of semesters a person may work for the department, but you must reapply each term.
Instructor aides earn $15.00 per hour and course graders earn $13.00 per hour. Job placement is driven in part by your availability to attend the class you are working with.
Amount and level of mathematics studied, major, performance in mathematics courses, and teaching/tutoring experience.
This is the name on your legal documents.
Must be ten characters for a valid ID.
Enter your class standing for the next term (Freshman, Sophomore, Junior, or Senior).
If you have worked in one of these capacities previously, list your assignment(s) as a UGI/UGG, position and what course and instructor you assisted.
Describe any other teaching/tutoring or work experience that would relate to your qualifications as a Mathematics Undergraduate Intern.
Please include position, employer, location, and dates worked.
If you have previously worked for the Department of Mathematics you do NOT need a reference letter or transcript, only the application.
Please have one Mathematics faculty who knows you and your work to write a brief, informal email or letter of recommendation for you and have them send it tougrdmath@indiana.edu. List the faculty writing your recommendation letter in the field below.
Unofficial IU transcript available to download through one.iu.edu and provide a PDF of any non-IU transcript if you have attended other universities.
Have you ever been convicted of a criminal offense that has not been expunged, restricted, or sealed by a judge?
Convicted means you were declared guilty by a judge or you pleaded guilty in court. A conviction may have even taken place if you did not pay a fine or spend time in jail or in prison. A conviction could have been for either a misdemeanor or a felony. Certain traffic offenses rise to the level of a misdemeanor or felony and must be declared; examples include driving under the influence, driving on a suspended license, reckless driving, leaving the scene of an accident, and vehicular homicide. A criminal history investigation is done on each new employee, and employment with the University is conditional, subject to the findings of a criminal history investigation. Answering yes to this question does not automatically disqualify you for employment; however, information obtained from the investigation will be used in the employment review process.
I understand this is a legal representation of my signature.
Please list the math courses you have taken. E.g., M211, M119, etc.
UGI Assignments UGIs distribute materials, quizzes, and exams in class, and grade quizzes and multiple-choice exams. During help sessions, they answer questions and assist students in solving problems. Some instructors expect UGIs to attend all classes. M/V118 (Finite Mathematics) M118 UGIs should have knowledge of elementary probability and linear algebra. M/V119 (Brief Survey of Calculus I) M119 UGIs need at least two semesters of calculus; familiarity with a graphing calculator is desirable. M120 (Brief Survey of Calculus II) M120 UGIs need at least two semesters of calculus; M311 is preferred. B110 (Mathematics for Business and Public Affairs) B110 UGIs should have knowledge of elementary probability, linear algebra, and at least two semesters of calculus. D116/D117 (Introduction to Finite Mathematics I, II) D116/D117 UGIs are expected to attend classes and help students with in-class activities. D116 UGIs should have knowledge of elementary probability. D117 UGIs should have knowledge of linear algebra. Tutoring in the Math Learning Center UGIs tutor students in algebra, pre-calculus, trigonometry, finite, and calculus. Experience with M118, M119 or equivalent is highly desirable. UGG Assignments UGGs grade papers out of classes for all the courses; no classroom duties are required. M125 (Pre-Calculus) M126 (Trigonometry) M127 (Pre-Calculus with Trigonometry) J Courses (introduction to sets and probability, intermediate algebra, and applied calculus)
