Explore the benefits of teaching through Cornell SCE

We invite you to teach courses during Cornell’s Summer and Winter Sessions, either on or off campus or online. 

These intensive sessions provide excellent opportunities to test new materials, experiment with teaching methods, introduce students to your discipline, create teaching assistant jobs, and interact with students motivated to immerse themselves in your course.
