Research assistants

The programme is aimed at promoting close collaboration between faculty members and students in research. Within this framework, a research assistant is directly involved in a faculty member’s research activities and provides support in preparing academic publications and carrying out other research-related tasks.

To appoint a research assistant, it is necessary to submit an application together with a work plan.

At the end of the appointment period, a final report must be submitted to the Academic Commission.

The appointment period for a research assistant may range from one to six months.

A research assistant may be a Bachelor’s or Master’s student with a GPA of at least 4.0 on a 5-point scale.

The Academic Commission reviews applications in the last month of each quarter (March, June, September, and December). Applications submitted no later than the first day of the respective month are considered.
