Graduate Assistantship Request and Policies
Graduate assistantships are intended to provide graduate students with experiences that add breadth and depth to their graduate education. These appointments typically involve duties in teaching, research, or service, and help fulfill the relevant mission of the department or office.
For a full-time appointment, paid $8.00/hour, approximately 20 clock hours per week are expected in performing assistantship duties. Staff or faculty who require the assistance of a graduate student must make such a request by completing the Graduate Research Assistantship Request form and submitting it to both the relevant departmental chair/office director and the Director for Academic Research for approval. Funding of graduate assistant is dependent on the budget and the deadline to make such a request for a given semester is at least two weeks prior to the first day of class.
