Graduate Assistantships

Graduate assistantships are university appointments that give students an opportunity to work with faculty members and provide a method of funding graduate studies. They are an excellent opportunity for gaining experience and academic growth in the College of Business Departments of Accounting, Finance-Insurance-Law, Management, and Marketing. Graduate assistants gain valuable experience by assisting faculty members with research activities, teaching, advising students, supervising laboratory groups, tutoring, or grading papers. Assistants are assigned 10 to 20 hours of work per week. In addition, they are expected to play leadership roles and participate in activities designed for M.B.A. students within the College of Business. Additional assistantship appointments exist in other areas of the University.
