Teaching Assistant Orientation
Teaching Assistants whose responsibilities primarily include grading, tutoring, assisting a course instructor, or holding office hours are required to attend the College of Engineering Graduate TA Orientation. Students whose responsibilities fit this category should NOT enroll in ENGR 888; rather they should attend the TA orientation.
Topics included in the session include:
- grading concerns,
- ethical responsibilities (especially as it relates to academic integrity), and
- tutoring strategies.
Students who have taken or are currently enrolled in ENGR 888 do not need to attend TA Orientation.
- Students who have participated in the TA Orientation in previous semesters do not need to attend.
Additional information about TA Orientation can be found by contacting Dr. Ibukun Osunbunmi and/or Dr. Stephanie Cutler
TA Orientation is offered in both the Fall and Spring semesters, so graduate students are highly encouraged to wait until they hold a TA position before attending. For graduate students with TA positions that include leading required classroom time, please review the information on ENGR 888.
