Position Overview

Research assistants are students who, in the course of their academic training, are employed in part-time or temporary research positions, where the student's academic training is based in part on the research performed.

All duties and services are to be carried out under the supervision and direction of faculty or administration.

These duties may include assisting a faculty member in descriptive, exploratory or experimental research; publication activities, data collection, data management and/or data analysis.

Hours per Week

Up to 15 hours per week, Monday - Friday (schedule is flexible).

College/Department Overview

The Psychology department functions as a pre-professional degree that prepares students to pursue graduate education in psychology or related fields.

It is designed to provide a variety of experiences for a well-rounded education. Graduates receive foundational education in statistical design, experimental psychology, neuroscience, cognition, learning, perception, and behavior.

Department Specific Job Functions

The research assistants will pursue two categories of activities that will benefit them directly 1) specialist skills include developing, designing, programming, and collecting data for their own experiments and 2) generalist skills include supporting the daily research activities of other students who benefit from having the psychology laboratory available for their research, coursework, and independent projects.

Both categories supply the workplace preparation needed by those who eventually direct large research programs or occupy other positions of responsibility.

Both categories supply useful experience for those going to graduate school.

Enrollment Requirements

Fall/Spring Semesters:
All student employees must be enrolled at least half-time to be eligible to work any UCO student position. Half-time enrollment for fall/spring semesters is considered 5 hours for graduates and 6 hours for undergraduates. International students must be enrolled full-time to be eligible to work as a student employee. Full-time enrollment is 9 credit hours for graduates and 12 credit hours for undergraduates.

Summer Semester:

Student employees working regular student positions must be enrolled in at least 3 credit hours to be eligible to work during the summer.

Students not enrolled in summer classes must be enrolled in fall classes in order to work during the summer, but they (and the department) will be required to pay FICA taxes.

Student employees working FWSP positions must be enrolled in a minimum of 6 credit hours (if undergraduate) or 5 credit hours (if graduate) in order to work during the summer in a Federal Work Study Program position.

Enrollment Exception:

If the number of credit hours needed to graduate is less than the minimum number of hours required for student employment, the student must obtain a letter from their Academic Advisor (stating the number of hours needed to graduate and anticipated graduation date) and submit it to Human Resources.

This pertains to both regular and Federal Work Study Program positions. Contact for more information.

If a student is enrolled in their final semester and the number of credit hours needed to graduate is less than the minimum number of hours required for student employment, the student must obtain a letter from their Academic Advisor (stating the number of remaining credit hours needed to graduate and the anticipated graduation date) and provide the letter to the hiring department for submission to Human Resources.
