Financial Support
The Department of Languages, Literatures and Cultures offers graduate teaching assistantships depending on teaching experience, plus full tuition abatement. Students who apply for admission to a graduate degree program will automatically be considered for these awards. Normally, students will be eligible for an assistantship in their first year of study. Renewal of the award is at the discretion of the graduate committee, but in general students in good standing can expect support for two years in the MA Program and four additional years in the PhD Program. All graduate teaching assistants undergo both theoretical and practical training in the teaching of French. Normally they teach in the beginning French language program. In addition to limited teaching duties, less experienced TAs are given assignments related to language teaching or extra-curricular language learning activities for undergraduates. Additional information on assistantships is to be found under Graduate Assistantships.
Detailed information on the application procedure is available at Admission Procedures.
