About the Role
The School of Mathematical Sciences is one of five schools within the Faculty of Science and Engineering. The five schools collaboratively run the Science and Engineering Foundation Programme – a one-year pre-undergraduate programme designed to offer a preparatory entry route into undergraduate degrees.
The Foundation programme is in a period of significant growth. At the same time, our range of undergraduate programmes remain very popular. The Teaching Fellow will mainly focus on supporting delivery of Foundation modules through design, delivery and management of tutorial sessions and drop-in support sessions, and supporting assessment and feedback.
