Find an on-campus job
Working on campus is a great way to get professional experience, make connections with staff and other students and get paid. For students receiving work-study, you will need to get a campus job to use that award.
Positions will be posted year-round, but there will often be more than 100 positions posted at the beginning of a semester.
Visit our Student Employment website for more information and to start your job search!
Conduct research or get creative![Student conducting research](../_files/research.jpg)
