Graduate Teaching Assistantship (GTA)

Graduate students at Nipissing University may be offered a Graduate Teaching Assistantship (GTA) as part of their funding package in a given academic year. GTAs are assigned internally through the School of Graduate Studies and the corresponding graduate program. Working under the supervision of the course instructor, Graduate Teaching Assistants provide valuable contributions to undergraduate teaching at Nipissing University while also giving the opportunity to share their knowledge in their area of expertise. Being a Graduate Teaching Assistant offers students meaningful professional development and work experience in teaching, facilitation, supervision, and evaluation. GTA positions are for a maximum of 10 hours per week and are available to full-time graduate students within their time to completion window.
