For others, working is a voluntary choice to enhance their development. Whatever the reason, working while attending college demands initiative and self-discipline. Working students deserve recognition for their extra efforts, along with the employers who support them. The staff of the Student Employment Office invite the University community to join in congratulating UConn's student employees and their employers for their contribution to our school, our community and our state. The program includes more than 800 awards for research, combined research and lecturing or university lecturing in 130 countries.
Opportunities range from two months to a full academic year.
Eligibility requirements are U.S. citizenship and a Ph.D. or comparable professional qualifications. For certain fields, such as fine arts or teaching English as a foreign language, the terminal degree in the field may be sufficient. The deadline for research and lecturing grants to all world areas is Aug. 1. For information and applications, contact Mal Bochner, Fulbright program adviser, Office of International Affairs, Human Development Building Room 15, U-182. Make an appointment today to give blood during the UConn blood drive that starts next week.
