TEACHING AND SUPPORT
Financial support.
Full-time students are guaranteed five years of support. Student
support is a combination of teaching and research assistantships as
well as fellowships, accompanied by a tuition waiver and health
benefits. There are three tiers of support based on course
credits and completion of requirements. We strive to ensure that
within each tier all students receive approximately the same amount of
support each academic year (summers included). For the 2007-2008
academic year, first-year students are expected to receive (at minimum)
$15,500 (not including tuition or benefits).Teaching. While students are not explicitly required to teach as part of their graduate training, teaching assistantships provide valuable preparation for academic careers, and thus students are strongly encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity. In addition, experienced students sometimes have the opportunity to be the instructor of record for some of the department's undergraduate courses (both in Storrs and at the branch campuses). Interested students should consult with their advisors and the division head. |
