American Studies has limited resources for financial support. Outstanding applicants will be nominated by the Department for fellowships. Additionally, the Department is often able to offer a limited number of teaching assistantships. Students who hold assistantships typically teach two sections of a 200-level, undergraduate American Studies course. Teaching opportunities may also be available in the summer and winter session terms.
