Buckeye Precollege seeks instructors to develop and teach courses for our summer enrichment programs for middle and high school students. Courses may be taught by a single instructor or by a team of instructors who share teaching duties. All instructors will design their own courses, which should reflect their expertise and teaching interests. Proposals are welcome from any academic discipline represented at Ohio State. 

Visit our Instructional Employment page for full details and resources, including links to the online submission form and Information Sessions for prospective instructors. 

Submission deadline: October 30, 2023
