Graduate Assistant, CSC Computing Fellows Program

Barnard’s Vagelos Computational Science Center is looking for a graduate assistant to assist with their Computing Fellows Program.

They should also have an interest in anti-racist computing pedagogy (or willingness to learn) and an understanding of current topics related to tech and society.

Job Description

The Computing Fellows program trains Barnard undergraduate students as peer-mentors and “attaches” fellows to courses that may or may not have a computational component. Fellows may be attached to courses in one of three ways: 1) by offering open office hours to students on coding or computing-related topics; 2) by preparing and offering workshops to help deepen students’ understanding of a coding language, program, or its application; 3) by offering one-on-one consultations with students on computing-related projects.
