IB GSI Appointment Application


For a list of courses for which we will be hiring GSIs please see: Projected GSI Courses for Fall 2012 [PDF]. Note that the number of GSIs required for a course is subject to change. Such changes may result in a change in your appointment to another course.

All GSI appointments are 50% time appointments unless otherwise noted and include partial fee offsets. (GSI appointments do not include offsets for the Berkeley campus fee, class pass fee, professional degree tuition, or non-resident supplemental tuition). For more information about fee remissions download the Fee Remission Bulletin [PDF].

Applicants must meet all Graduate Division requirements for the GSI appointment including being a registered graduate student with a minimum GPA of 3.0 and no more than 2 incompletes. For additional details on requirements for GSI appointments please download the GSI appointment policies [PDF].

All first-time GSIs are required:

  • to attend the Teaching Conference for GSIs on the Friday before classes begin,
  • complete an online course: Professional Standards and Ethics for GSIs, before the end of the third week of teaching,
  • enroll in a semester-long, 300-level course on teaching in the discipline either prior to or concurrent with the first teaching assignment.

For general information on Berkeley campus GSI guidelines, resources and support visit the Graduate Division's Teaching and Resource Center website. You are responsible for following all requirements of the Graduate Division and Department relating to GSI appointments.
