Are Graduate Assistantship Available?
A limited number of graduate assistantships are available on a competitive basis to qualified graduate students enrolled in one of the master’s degree programs in the Department. In the past, assistantships have been awarded predominantly to graduate students who were able to teach one of the languages of instruction in the Department, in particular Spanish or Japanese. We would like to award more assistantships, but the growth of our program has outpaced the number of assistantships which we are allotted. Given the current condition of the state and university budget, we do not anticipate the situation changing soon and we find we cannot offer assistantships to many of our students who are very deserving.
