Many of the research projects in the department employ undergraduates as part of the research team. See our undergraduate research page for more information on ways of doing this. Be warned, however, that there is a very limited number of opportunities to do this and generally only students with outstanding academic records will be considered.
May include working in a computer lab, grading, tutoring, holding small discussions sections, or any other course related duties as assigned by the course instructors. You will be evaluated on your performance over the course of the semester based on your ability to perform your assigned duties in a professional manner. These duties include being helpful and courteous to students, as well as being punctual and reliable. You may be asked to attend weekly meetings and to be available to grade final exams.
You will be assigned to work up to 20 hours per week at a pay rate based on your class rank. On average this pay is roughly $650/month. You will also be eligible for an out-of-state tuition waiver if you are appointed to a 20-hour position.
Complete the Proctor Application form and return it to TAY 2.126. Attaching a resume to the form is recommended. Please do not e-mail the instructors directly. Each instructor will be able to look at the application forms. Applications will be accepted through the 12th class day of the fall and spring semesters and through the 4th class day of summer.
UT's Annual Honors Colloquium occurs each Summer. This annual event brings several hundred talented high school students to our campus each July. Each spring we seek UT students who would be strong candidates for the position of student mentor. Application information for the Annual Honors Colloquium will be available in the Spring.
