WSU Graduate School Funding

The WSU IMPACT (IMproving Prevention through ACTion) Research Lab in the Department of Human Development is seeking graduate assistants for the Spring 2024 semester. The IMPACT lab conducts action-oriented, mixed-methods research on quality preventive intervention implementation and sustainability, as well as conducting evaluations of evidence-based preventive interventions. In doing so, IMPACT aims to understand and close the gap between science and the real-world practice of prevention in and beyond Washington state. See more about our work here.
APPLY NO LATER THAN DECEMBER 8 using this link: https://wsu.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_3xZJMidPlf9l5Lo.

Assistantship appointments provide financial support to a graduate student who engages in teaching (TA), research (RA), and/or service (SA or GA). Departments and programs generally make assistantship offers during the admissions process; however, current students may be eligible for an assistantship in their program when funding is available. Graduate assistantships may include a tuition waiver, health insurance, and a monthly stipend. Students should contact their department or graduate program to learn more about assistantship opportunities.
