We are recruiting instructors for the 2026 UConn Pre-College Summer Program
UConn PCS Instructors play an important role in the functionality of our program. In most cases our instructors create students’ first impressions of college learning and set early expectations of what it means to be a college student. They share their subject matter expertise with students during their course and provide them with answers to major-, field-, and career-related questions (e.g., what career can I have if this was my college major?).
Deadline: October 17, 2025

UConn PCS serves as an exploratory experience where high school students gain an understanding of the college classroom through interactions with engaging University faculty and explore the nuances of college-life and transitioning to college.
