Division of the Humanities Graduate Student Employment Policy

Graduate students at the University are expected to devote full attention and effort to their graduate studies and may undertake employment only as an adjunct to their student status. As such, graduate students in the Division of the Humanities who are registered full-time may not work for the University more than twenty 20 hours per week, including teaching and research appointments, in accordance with the University student employment policy.

There are no limits on employment in the summer if the student is not registered in the Summer quarter.

International students in F-1 or J-1 status are limited by visa requirements to (20) hours/week of on-campus work during the Academic Year.

Fellowship terms that prohibit or limit employment to less that twenty hours/week supersede the Division’s employment policy.
