Graduate Students
Teaching Assistantships
Many graduate students receive all or part of their financial support through Teaching Assistantships. This support requires the graduate student to be involved in instruction and/or marking, and they are not guaranteed to any student. Minimum grade standards must be met, and the awards are made available, in part, in response to instructional needs within Program areas.
It is best to check with your Supervisor, or Graduate Program Chair to see if any are available. Then get more application details via www.unbc.ca/career-opportunities/current-graduate-teaching-assistantship-postings
