Research Assistants

Stipends for research assistants are determined by the principal investigator and approved by the chairman and are based on the qualifications of the student employee, the nature of the work performed and the available financial resources. Such stipends must be in accord with any relevant stipulations of the contracting/granting agency. The principal investigator may use the pay scale for graduate teaching assistants as a guide in determining the stipends for graduate research assistants.
