We are looking for upper division physics or astrophysics majors to serve as TAs for Physics 120 (Big Bang to Black Holes) for the Spring 2019 semester. The TAs will be grading essays and run help/discussion sessions.  

The gen-ed class Physics 120 (Big Bang to Black Holes) will be taught 1:25-2:15 MWF in the Spring 19 semester.  Up to five undergraduate TAs with suitable experience will be hired to grade weekly essays and possibly to run late afternoon/early evening help sessions. There will be a one-hour TA meeting per week (time to be determined to fit all of the TAs schedules). The position is for 10 hours per week, at a salary of  $12/hour.

If interested, please contact Prof. Lorenzo Sorbo (sorbo@physics.umass.edu).
