Overview

Almost all of the graduate students in physics are supported through Graduate Teaching Fellowships (GTF). This includes a stipend for nine months and a tuition scholarship covering up to 10 credits per semester.

Features

Beginning graduate students at The University of Vermont are assigned to teach laboratory classes in the introductory Physics courses.

In later years, these students may continue to teach laboratory classes or recitations, but often are increasingly supported through research grants as they focus on thesis research.
