Student is assigned to an instructor for assistance with a particular course or courses. Courses that typically have TAs are assessment courses and research courses. TAs may be required to attend classes for the course, teach and/or manage lab sections, give students written or oral feedback on their work, and/or hold office hours to assist students with protocols or computer programs. Graduate assistantships in the Psychology Department were developed to provide students with professional experiences beyond those available through the classroom or in externships and/or field placements. Assistantships are designed to be consistent with students’ levels of education and training and to enhance the growth and development of the Department and its programs.
