    Company Description

    Columbia University's Pre-College Programs offer high-achieving high school students the opportunity to engage in exploratory coursework at the college level, studying alongside peers from around the world. This highly selective program is open to students entering grades 9-12 and freshman year of college.

    Job Description

    Columbia University's Pre-College Programs for High School Students is seeking qualified candidates to develop and teach on-campus (i.e., in person) courses during Summer '24.

    Please Note: Course(s) and course availability is subject to change. Dates and class times are tentative and subject to change.

    Session:

    • Summer C: August 5th - August 9th

    Class Times:

    • 11:10am-1pm & 3:10pm-5pm EST

    Course description:

    Participants learn the principles of finance and investment management, to include interest rates and compound interest, the time value of money, risk and reward, how stocks and bonds are valued, how the stock market functions, how the international financial market functions, and how to approach stock selection and portfolio management.

    We explore the structure of the financial system, to include the role of individual participants, investment banks, asset managers, the Central Bank, and other players in the global economy. The course connects foundations of economics to financial markets. What is the role of risk in investment? How does the environment of the market and the broader world drive return on investments? Why have some investments done well in memorable history? Why have others not done well? How are the winners and losers of past investments explained by financial theory? What is the role of traditional investments, such as mutual funds, and of alternative investments, such as venture capital, private equity and hedge funds?

    Students generate their own investment strategies and portfolios. The course includes some asynchronous work, which students are expected to complete between class sessions.

    Responsibilities:

    • Develop course content, syllabus, lesson plans, and assigned work
    • Lead and attend all in-person class sessions
    • Establish and maintain a dynamic in-class environment tailored for our high school population
    • Evaluate student work and write a holistic evaluation of each participant after the course ends
    • Monitor and address student concerns and inquiries (you will have around 20-24 students)
    • Attend and complete all required online trainings

    • Graduate degree or equivalent professional or academic background
    • Expertise in the pertinent subject matter
