Geology TA Application Process for Spring 2017

The Spring 2017 semester applications admissions and teaching assistantships will be due October 15th. The coming fall semester assitantships and positions have already been filled.  

To complete the application go to: 
https://application.uark.edu/

From there the grad school will assign you a login name and password. (give that a few days).
After that upload all necessary materials including statement of purpose and CV. Be sure to mention you are interested in a teaching assistantship

Teaching assistantships ($11,000 for 9 months for MS level, $13,000 for 9 months PhD level) in the department typically involve teaching undergraduate intro geology, and occasionally upper division undergrad classes. Research assistantships are dependent on your thesis advisor. If they have money for an RA, basically. 

Additional information can be found at the department website:
