Teaching Assistants

Teaching Assistant positions can only be filled by registered graduate students. Occasionally the Psychology Department hires qualified graduate students from other departments on campus when we do not have enough Psychology graduate students available to fill all our positions. If you are a UCSC graduate student in a discipline other than Psychology, please contact Allison Land to inquire about current openings.

Tutors

Tutors are hired for courses when qualified Teaching Assistants are not available, and perform essentially the same duties as a TA. Tutors must have an undergraduate degree and the appropriate academic background for the specific course. Those interested in being considered as a tutor for future quarters should contact Allison Land for information.

Readers

Readers for courses can be anyone with the appropriate background for the course, student or non-student. Current pay for those without an undergraduate degree is $12.08/hour, $12.72/hour with an undergraduate degree. Readers are normally selected by the instructor, but should contact Lorraine Meusel before undertaking any assignments as they are required to be signed up for the UCSC payroll before they perform any reader duties. Open reader positions will be listed on this webpage.
