Graduate Teaching Assistantships

Graduate Teaching Assistantships are positions offered to graduate students that combine work and study. In these roles, students assist professors with teaching tasks such as leading discussion sections, grading, or tutoring. In exchange, they typically receive a stipend (salary) and often a tuition waiver, helping fund their education. This arrangement allows students to gain teaching experience, deepen their understanding of their field, and reduce the cost of their graduate studies, serving as both an educational opportunity and financial support.
