Graduate Assistantships

The School of ENCS has assistantship positions available. Admission to a program does not guarantee an assistantship appointment. Due to limited funding, competition for such support is high. The majority of the assistantships are available for the Fall semester.

There are two types of assistantships: (1) Research Assistant (RA) and (2) Teaching Assistant (TA). The Research Assistantships are determined by individual faculty who have grant funding.

Assistantships may provide for a tuition waiver and/or a monthly stipend (paid semi-monthly and subject to state and federal withholding).

Application for assistantship

As part of the application to the School of Engineering and Computer Science, you will be asked to inidicate if you would like to be considered for an assistantship.

You are encouraged to contact Dr. Hakan Gurocak to discuss the details of the programs in Vancouver and your research interests. Please note that your graduate admission application file must be complete for consideration for an assistantship appointment.
