Department of Mathematics


Tutoring and marking

Within the Department of Mathematics, the main types of paid employment for graduate students are assignment marking and lab demonstrating. In addition, students are employed to run first year tutorials and to help in the first year assistance room.

Assignment marking

There is a large amount of assignment marking for undergraduate courses each year. The Department pays Stage III and graduate students to do marking and this employment is open to anybody with good grades in first and second year Mathematics courses. Each semester we employ about 30 markers.

Tutorships

These are available to PhD students and to a small number of masters students who have ability or experience in teaching or lecturing. The duties vary but usually involve teaching and marking.

Assistant lectureships

These are available to selected PhD students only. The duties vary from lectureship to lectureship, but usually involves examination marking and teaching.

Note: There is a tradeoff between studying and completing part time work. If you work too many hours a week, your studies will suffer. For example, if you are doing a Master of Science thesis full time and you work 15 hours a week, your thesis will typically take several more months to complete.
