QBS 196 Supervised Teaching in QBS
This required course provides QBS PhD students with hands-on teaching experience through service as a teaching assistant (TA) for a QBS course. Teaching is considered a vital component of graduate training, offering students the opportunity to develop communication, leadership, and instructional skills that are often relevant to future academic or professional careers. TA responsibilities may include leading discussion sections or office hours, grading assignments, managing course websites, and attending lectures. The time commitment will not exceed 10 hours per week. In some cases, students may work closely with the course instructor to develop course materials or assignments. While not required, students interested in expanding their teaching experience may have the opportunity to design and deliver guest lectures.
This course is open only to QBS PhD students.
