Graduate Teaching Assistants (GTAs) are hired in the department to conduct labs/tutorials, mark assignments/tests, work in our Mathematics and Statistics Learning Centre [1] and to conduct other departmental duties such as invigilation and course evaluations.

Graduate Research Assistantships (GRAs) are designed to allow you to collaborate with your supervisors in current research projects. GRAs are paid by the student's supervisors from their research grants. You are strongly advised to contact potential supervisors regarding GRA funding availability.

Scholarships and bursaries are available from the University and from the College of Physical & Engineering Science (CPES). For some scholarships, you are automatically considered and do not need to apply. Other scholarships and bursaries require a separate application. You are encouraged to speak to your potential Research Advisor about the availability of scholarships and bursaries. To search for available Graduate Awards, visit this page [2].
