A group of college students sit in an auditorium, all facing toward the front with attentive expressions. Most students have their chins resting on their hands or fingers to their faces, suggesting deep focus. The lighting is soft and academic, and the seating consists of padded gray chairs. The students represent a diverse group, and several are wearing sweatshirts or casual clothing. The atmosphere suggests they are watching a presentation or lecture.

Teaching Assistant (TA) / Grader Appointments

Teaching Assistants and Graders are Academic Student Employee positions reserved for current enrolled students. All TAships are awarded as a percent of full-time, with 50% TAships being the most common: the percentage refers to the percent of a full-time 40-hour week worked.

In a bright, well-equipped research lab, a professor enthusiastically gestures while speaking to two students, all wearing white lab coats. One student looks into a microscope while the other observes and listens. The lab benches are filled with scientific supplies, including pipette racks, sample containers, and labeled bottles. A large window in the background lets in natural light, adding to the collaborative and focused atmosphere of scientific exploration.
