Can graduates students serve as teaching assistants?
Professors teaching introductory courses for the General Education program may request funding for a General Education Faculty Assistant, usually a second-year graduate student. Teaching Assistants (TAs) may be expected to sit in on the course, take careful notes in case students require tutoring assistance, present review sessions before exams, counsel individual students on coursework or papers, and assist with in-class discussions. Being a TA is an excellent experience for MA students interested in pursuing a career in college teaching or museum education.
