How should research assistants, associates, etc. be handled on EAP?
If they are graduate students at your institution performing research or graduate assistant duties while enrolled, report them in the “Graduate assistants” column and on the “Primarily research” row of Part B (part-time employees) on EAP. If they are not graduate students, but are performing discipline oriented research work (e.g., biology, materials engineering, etc.) generally requiring a bachelor’s or higher degree, report them on the “Primarily research” row in either Part A (full-time employees) or Part B (part-time employees) on EAP in the appropriate column.
