The YI group, a division of the Museum’s Education department, is dedicated to STEM workforce development and science enrichment for youth ages 10 to 24. In YI, we aspire to be a hub and model for youth science learning and engagement that responds to institutional and societal discrimination that prevents full participation in science by all young people. We are looking for candidates committed to this vision in working with the YI team to build a more just and equitable community of STEM learners and leaders.

- Revising/designing life science curriculum as needed through the year for the various program departments.
- Participating in professional learning by observing classes, participating in education professional development (like attending special exhibits), DEI sessions and/or co-teaching with more senior educators.
QUALIFICATIONS
- Bachelor’s degree in a life science field, education or other science field.
- Proven knowledge and mastery of life science content and material.
- Proven passion for youth education.
- Prior experience working with youth ages 11 to 18.
EXPECTED SALARY
- The expected salary for the Life Science Educator is $38.54/hour. This position is overtime-eligible.
Pay will be determined based on several factors. The hiring range for the position at commencement is based on the type of work and the scope of responsibilities. The salary and placement offered is based on a number of individualized factors, including, but not limited to, skills, knowledge, training, education, credentials, areas of specialization and depth and scope of experience.
