As part of the graduate education program, students are encouraged to participate in instructional and outreach activities. These opportunities allow students to share their enthusiasm for what they do to others and to experience the personal excitement that comes from teaching. Possible activities include:

• Serving as an Assistant-in-Instruction (AI) for undergraduate and graduate materials science courses (MSE 301, MSE 302, MSE 501, MSE 505)
• Mentoring undergraduate students in research
• Advising summer undergraduate and high school students in research and teaching through short courses
• Numerous outreach activities
