Appointment Priorities

Priority for appointment/reappointment as a Teaching Assistant is in accordance with Article 13 of the Collective Agreement with the Teaching Support Staff Union (TSSU).

In allocating Teaching Assistant positions, the department will also take into account the following:

• Instructor requests;
• Applicant鈥檚 preferences;
• Amount of financial support offered on admission to the graduate program;
• Suitability for particular courses (e.g. discipline of prior degree(s), publications, experience);
• Employment evaluations;
• Number of base units already received to ensure sufficient teaching-related experience in his/her field of study.

Note:

If an assignment within a priority group requires a selection between applicants, the graduate student without financial support from merit based scholarships or merit based fellowships during the semester of appointment with a value equal to at least a 5.17 appointment, will have priority for the appointment.
