Graduate Assistants
Printer-friendly versionSend by emailPDF version
A graduate assistantship is a nonrenewable, part-time academic appointment. In addition to carrying out their assignments in their unit of hire, graduate assistants (GAs) also have roles as professionals, albeit of an apprentice nature, in the university community. Thus, GAs need to be familiar with the academic regulations of the university as well as the professional standards of their field.
