Graduate Assistantships

Graduate Assistantships (Program or Teaching)

The Department of Educational Leadership and Policy Analysis supportes several graduate assistants, graduate fellows, and teaching assistants. Students in our Department also find work opportunities through the Wisconsin Center for Educational Research (WCER), Consortium for Policy Research in Education (CPRE), Center on Education and Work (CEW), and The Wisconsin Center for Advancement of Post-Secondary Education (WISCAPE)

Graduate students admitted to the Educational Leadership and Policy Analysis Department who have the necessary skills and experience to assist a professor or project director in the teaching or research activities in which s/he is engaged are eligible to apply for graduate assistantships. Graduate assistantships are not offered as recruiting tools to students who are applying for admission to the Department.
