Dr. Brian Bingham,



I'm reaching out in the hopes that you will send along information about an exciting, fully funded fellowship program in New York City. This is a call to action for Earth and space science graduates and professionals to enroll in the Master of Arts in Teaching Earth Science Residency program at the Richard Gilder Graduate School at the American Museum of Natural History.



The Master of Arts in Teaching Earth Science Residency Program is looking for graduates with Earth and space science backgrounds (geology, mineralogy, paleontology, oceanography, astronomy, environmental geology, and more) who want to make a difference in the world of STEM education. This teaching fellowship combines coursework, mentoring, and real-world experience to prepare Earth and space science graduates for rewarding careers as culturally responsive middle and high school teachers.

 

All degree candidates will receive free tuition, books, and a $30,000 living stipend. In return, candidates commit to teaching in a high-needs school for three years.

 

With a sole focus on preparing new Earth science teachers, the program is a full-time, 15-month Master's degree program that takes place at the Museum and in urban partner schools. We seek a student body with a passion for social justice and diverse life and career experiences.

 

We are currently accepting applicants for the class that will begin in June 2022 and are hoping that you will be able to share information about the program and the attached digital flyer broadly. We encourage anyone interested to come to one of our information sessions, or to reach out to us via email or phone. Please visit the program website at www.amnh.org/mat<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amnh.org%2Fmat&data=04%7C01%7Cparkh23%40wwu.edu%7Cc783d4292d574d617f8208d9d6db0f88%7Cdc46140ce26f43efb0ae00f257f478ff%7C0%7C0%7C637777058610647708%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=pETpITaenFLuT6Prjqso%2F8DkF1%2FFklpI2NE1ivyTdME%3D&reserved=0> to join the mailing list and/or get more information. Applications are due February 15, 2022.



If you or interested candidates have questions you can contact us directly at mat at amnh.org<mailto:mat at amnh.org> or (212) 313-7464.



We hope you’ll share this information broadly and help us build our cohort of future outstanding Earth science teachers.



Best Regards,



Ro
