TA Assignment Policy
TA assignment policy is under College of Education purview, effective Fall 2021.
- The EDP Leadership Team and Executive Assistant determine individual TA allocations each semester based on the College of Education TA Assignment Policy.
- Prior to each semester, the EDP Executive Assistant:
- Emails EDP students with a link to the TA Application online (EA will compile applications into a spreadsheet for instructors to view)
- Emails instructors with their approved TA allotment (# of TA hours assigned per course), and a link to the Student TA Applications for EDP.
- Instructors reply to the Executive Assistant with their assigned TA, including the EDP TA Agreement (signed by instructor and student).
Hiring a Student Employee
Faculty who have received a notification email from the EDP Executive Assistant regarding permission to hire a student employee must submit the name and EID of the student, as well as the details of their assignment (e.g. which course or research project the student will be working on) to the EA by the deadline requested. The student and faculty should carefully review the UT graduate student employment criteria to ensure student meets all UT and Graduate School hiring criteria.
A signed Agreement Form must also be submitted prior to start of employment:
Performance Evaluations
University policy requires that graduate student employees work under the supervision of a regular faculty member, who must file a written evaluation of the student's work performance with the Department Chair at the close of each semester. EDP Executive Assistant will send evaluation links to faculty supervisors near the end of each semester. Completed evaluations are kept on file digitally in UT Box.
