Most areas will not know their openings for next year until the beginning of the spring semester. We do not have a centralized placement service for our students, however we will assist each student in identifying possible assistantship opportunities. Again, your faculty advisor can help you to identify those offices that have openings which may meet your interests. You should also ask for details of the duties required for the position and then prepare and submit a resume and cover letter, as you would apply for any professional position. Although many offices hire during the late spring and summer, some positions open during the academic year.
Several offices offer more than one position each year.
