Departmental Funding Opportunities

We only offer Graduate Assistantships to our on-campus students. These assistantships are not available for our online students. Graduate Assistantships are available each year to new and current on-campus students, and are funded for up to four semesters, and are employed as either 10 or 20-hour assistants. Graduate Assistants assist faculty members with teaching responsibilities. On occasion our faculty may have research money with which to hire research assistants.
