MTE - Mentored Independent Teaching experience

3 units

Mentored Independent Teaching (MIT) is a semester-long experience for PhD students who engage as the primary instructor or co-instructor of a course under the mentorship of a faculty member as part of their Mentored Teaching Requirement. Throughout the semester, students receive regular feedback from a faculty mentor based on classroom observation conducted a few times per semester or other acceptable review mechanisms. The student should ask for guidance and support from the faculty mentor while navigating the responsibilities of independent teaching. Faculty mentors are also required to complete the final evaluation for the student.
