Call for TA Applications - Master of Data Science, UBC
UBC is accepting applications for TAships with the UBC Master of Data Science (MDS) program and related courses Stat 545/547. A list of the MDS courses can be viewed here.
The Master of Data Science program is on the block system, and so each course lasts one month. They ideally want 12 hours/wk TA commitments per course. They welcome students TAing multiple courses. The blocks fall roughly under these dates:
Block 1: Sept
Block 2: Oct - mid Nov
Block 3: mid Nov - mid Dec
If you are interested, we invite you to please fill out our application form.
The deadline to apply is May 20, 2020.
TAing with MDS and/or Stat 545/547 can help you build and practice both your teaching and Data Science skills. We hope you will consider working with us! If you have any questions about this (or anything related) please do not hesitate to email Hayley at hfboyce@cs.ubc.ca.
