The UNT Chemistry Department is participating in a program to utilize highly successful CHEM 1410 and 1420 students as Peer-Led Team-Learning (PLTL) Leaders. If you earned an A in CHEM 1410 and 1420, you are invited to apply for this position. Working as a PLTL leader can help strengthen your foundational chemistry knowledge, as well as your ability to interact with others and facilitate group discussions. Regardless of your major or ultimate career goals, these are skills that can benefit you the rest of your career.

In addition to outstanding performance in CHEM 1410/1420, there are additional requirements to be a PLTL leader:

(1) Attend new student employee orientation and training the week before classes start in the Fall semester.

(2) Work ~5 hours per week; meet with instructor once per week, attend recitation (assisting as needed), and hold 2 1.5-hour study sessions outside of class time. (Depending on the number of successful applicants, up to 10 hours may be offered for experienced leaders.)

You must provide your transcript, a brief paragraph detailing why you would like to be a PLTL leader, and the contact information for your General Chemistry professor (preferably from UNT).

If you are interested, you must apply through Eagle Careers using the Handshake program.

(1) Go to the on-campus-student-employment website, http://studentaffairs.unt.edu/career-center/students-and-alumni/find-a-job-or-internship/on-campus-student-employment

(2) About 1/3 of the way down that page, look for the paragraph that begins "To apply for an on-campus position" and follow the bullet points found immediately below in order.

(3) Once inside of Handshake the Job ID you are looking for is 2634916.

Review of the applications will begin May 6th. We look forward to working with you in the next semester or semesters to help the next cohort of General Chemistry students!
