American Museum of Natural History
Change lives. Teach science.
This is the call to action for Earth and space science graduates and professionals to enroll in the Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) Earth Science Residency program at the Richard Gilder Graduate School at the American Museum of Natural History - the first urban teacher residency program offered by a museum.
All degree candidates will receive free tuition and books, and a $30,000 living stipend. In return, candidates commit to teaching in a high-need school in New York State for four years. With a focus on preparing new Earth science teachers, the MAT program is a full-time, 15-month fellowship Master’s program that takes place at the museum and in urban partner schools. We seek a student body with diverse life and career experience, and the application is open to all candidates meeting the eligibility requirements.
We are currently accepting applicants for the class that will matriculate in June 2019. Please visit the program website at www.amnh.org/mat to join the mailing list and/or get more information. You can contact us directly at mat@amnh.org or (212) 313-7464.
