Admitted graduate students pursuing a master’s or doctoral degree in any of the four programs within the department, which include Art Education, Art Therapy, Arts Administration, and Museum Education and Visitor-Centered Curation (EC), are eligible to apply for an assistantship. Assistantships are competitive and the number of funded positions vary from year to year. Assistantships supply graduate students with a tuition waiver and stipend. The department offers two different types of assistantships to incoming students:
GAs may receive a position in the following areas: Art & Design Library in William Johnston Building, social media team, Opening Nights Mural Project, departmental newsletter, or personal research assistant to a Professor.
TAs are degree-seeking graduate students with a related master’s degree. TAs perform primary teaching duties as the Instructor of Record (IOR). These assistantships are only offered to PhD candidates with previous teaching experience.
Prospective Students – Completed assistantship applications are due by fall enrollment deadlines. Assistantship applications for prospective students should be completed in the SLATE application system.
Current Students – Applications for current students should be sent via email to the director of your program.
