Assistantships

Thank you for your interest in an Assistantship in the English Department. The number of assistantship positions varies based on the term and budget. There are three kinds of assistantships:

  • Teaching Assistantship: students are trained to teach college composition and teach 1-2 undergraduate courses per semester depending on funding package.
  • Graduate Assistantship: students develop and assist with department marketing, social media, outreach, and event-planning.
  • Research Assistantship: students work with faculty on research projects.

To Apply for an Assistantship:

You should submit a Letter of Application addressed to the Director of Graduate Studies in which you address your interest in and qualifications for a Teaching Assistantship, Graduate Assistantship, and/or a Research Assistantship. For the latter two, specify areas of interest as well as organizational and research experience.

The preferable and most efficient way to apply for the TA/GA/RA is to include the above letter with your graduate school application; if you can, submit it with your application to the Graduate School.

If you prefer, you may send your TA/GA/RA letter of application separately from your application for admittance directly to:

Director of Graduate Studies: Dr. Marc Santos

Email: marc.santos@unco.edu

Finally, there are a number of Graduate Assistantships and Graduate Employment opportunities you may apply for at the University.
