The courses at the EPGY Summer Institutes are taught by Stanford instructors who are selected for their expertise as well as their ability and experience in teaching students in the Summer Institute grade range. Daily classroom instruction is occasionally supplemented with guest lectures and special projects. The residential counselors assist students with their coursework, so that the academic and social components of the program are fully integrated. The residential counselors are mostly Stanford undergraduate and graduate students who are pursuing majors in the subject areas of the EPGY course offerings. Additional teaching assistants will provide instructional support on a drop-in basis. The ratio of instructional staff to students is approximately one-to-five or one-to-four.

"My instructor was awesome! She had a great sense of humor and really loved the subject that she was teaching." — Student in Humanities
