All graduate students are invited to apply for a Teaching Assistantship in the Department of Mathematics
and Statistics for the Fall and Winter terms of 2023/24. Teaching assistantships will be assigned Following
section 12.04 of PSAC Local 901 Collective Agreement.
The following link provides a list of all courses which may be assigned a graduate TA. (2024-25 courses requiring TAs (PDF))
Notes:
- Courses with low final enrollments will not be assigned a TA. The cutoff is usually 15 students.
- Some instructors may opt not to use a TA.
- Instructors and enrollments are not final until September and January in the case of winter term courses.
- TA duties are broken down into four categories: student contact (running tutorials/labs and proctoring); term marking (assignments and quizzes throughout the term); exam marking (mid-year and final exams at the end of term and after classes are over); and administrative support (preparing solutions, answering student emails; posting solutions, etc.) Not all courses will require all categories of work.
Students who may be registered in a graduate program in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics
in the 2024-25 academic year, regardless of their group as noted in section 12.04 of the collective
agreement, will be emailed a link to a survey in which to indicate their teaching assistantship preferences.
External candidates should submit a curriculum vitae, transcripts, details on relevant experience as well
as any other relevant materials the candidate wishes to submit for consideration (i.e. a teaching dossier
or student evaluations, etc.) along with their course preferences, to Dr. Ping Li (pingli@queensu.ca).
The deadline to apply is Wednesday, July 17, 2024. Review of completed applications will begin after this
