TA Agreement Form

TA Agreement Form

• Starting Spring 2024, all TA's will be required to fill out a TA Agreement Form that is signed by the student and faculty.

• It is the student's responsibility to initiate the form to get routed to the faculty. 

• The DocuSign form requires the instructor's email in the format of @eid.utexas.edu See examples below: 

Example 1: If Dr. Truskett is your TA instructor then you would use his EID, truskett, for the email. The email would read: truskett@eid.utexas.edu  

Example 2: If Dr. Rosales is your TA instructor then you would use her EID, amr55, for the email. The email would read: amr55@eid.utexas.edu 

You can find each instructor's EID in the UT Directory

• The Teaching Assistant Agreement outlines the responsibilities of graduate students supporting faculty in courses. TA's may perform tasks like grading, leading labs, and holding office hours, but are not assigned regular classroom instruction duties.

• The agreement specifies eligibility criteria, compensations, and evaluation methods, emphasizing the importance of adherence to academic standards and training requirements.

• Both TA's and instructors must sign the agreement, acknowledging their understanding and agreement with the terms.
