ASSISTANTSHIPS

As a graduate assistant, a Digital Media (DM) M.S. student generally works 14 hours a week (1/3 time) and earns a stipend of $1200 per month. Georgia Tech tuition for Graduate Assistants is waived; however, students are required to pay all Georgia Tech student fees.

Students working as graduate assistants must register with the Georgia Tech Payroll department as university employees. As such, graduate assistants are paid once per month beginning with the first month of employment.

The School of Literature, Communication and Culture (which houses the DM graduate program) offers a limited number of graduate research and teaching assistantships. Additional graduate assistantships may be available in association with other schools or projects at Georgia Tech.
