Southern Polytechnic's Graduate Assistantship Program is designed to permit progress, academically and financially, through a graduate degree program. The assistantship may be a component of the total academic program of a particular student, along with course work, a project or thesis, a practicum, and examinations. While graduate assistants progress toward an advance degree, they also receive practical experience under the supervision of faculty/staff.
Graduate assistants occupy dual roles – they are both students at the university and temporary student employees of the university. In their student role, graduate assistants are expected to concentrate on their studies under the direction of faculty mentors as a means of developing knowledge of their field of study and their professional skills. As temporary student employees, graduate assistants are expected to meet the obligations assigned, whether they involve instructional or research related activities.
