PhD students have ample opportunities (with no obligation) to work as teaching assistants or research assistants. These roles support your professional development by allowing you to work closely with faculty on course design, delivery, and administration, as well as on key stages of the research process such as literature reviews, coding, and data analysis.

TA and RA positions help you deepen your knowledge of topics and methods that will benefit your growth as a teacher and researcher. They also offer the opportunity to earn additional income.
