Short-Term Student Assistance

The Center for Asian Studies is pleased to announce a new funding opportunity.  We have a small budget available to provide short-term student assistance for faculty engaged in projects related to Asian culture and language.  Examples of appropriate projects include research assistance and proofreading.  Undergraduate students will be paid $11.50/hour and graduate students will earn $15.00/hour to a maximum $750.

Faculty members who would like to apply for this funding should send a proposal to CAS at cas@colorado.edu (write “Short-Term Student Assistance” in the subject line) at least a month before the proposed start date.  Proposals may also be sent to:

Danielle Rocheleau Salaz
Center for Asian Studies
279 UCB, Norlin Room S423
Boulder, CO  80309

Proposals should include:

  • Name, department, and contact information for applicant
  • A description of the project and the student’s contribution
  • Name of the student you are proposing to hire
  • Whether the student is a graduate student or an undergraduate
  • Total number of hours the student will work (with justification of the need for this number of hours)
  • Projected start and end dates
  • Project budget including any other sources of funding

There are two bi-annual deadlines for applications: March 15 and October 15. The CAS Executive Board will review all applications. Successful applicants will be contacted with financial details, and the applicant’s home department will be expected to handle all HR procedures.
