    Graduate Teaching Assistantships in Human Movement Sciences

    The Department of Human Movement Sciences at the University of
    Wisconsin - Milwaukee offers a Master of Science degree program
    emphasizing research in the human movement sciences. The program
    provides instruction and research opportunities for students interested
    in studying the biopsychosocial aspects of human movement. The thrust
    of the curriculum is the integration of the body of knowledge
    fundamental to the science of human movement through study in at least
    three of the five sub-disciplines represented by faculty in the program
    (Biomechanics, Exercise Physiology, Motor Control, Psychological Aspects
    of Physical Activity and Sociological Aspects of Physical Activity).
    The Department has graduate teaching assistant (GTA) positions available
    in three areas (outlined in more detail below). Only students accepted
    to the MS Kinesiology graduate program will be considered for a GTA
    appointment.

    Criteria for admission to the graduate program include:
    1. GRE scores
    2. Undergraduate grade point average (minimum of 2.75 on 4.0
    scale)
    3. Appropriate coursework history

    Program application may be made on line (www.uwm.edu/Dept/Grad_Sch/) or
    materials may be obtained by contacting the Graduate School
    (414.229.4982) or the department's Graduate Coordinator, Dr. Barbara
    Hart (414.229.5678 or hart@uwm.edu). Our web-site
    (http://www.uwm.edu/SAHP/gp/hk/ghkmenu.html) has additional helpful
    information.

    To apply for a GTA appointment, candidates shall also submit:
    1. A formal letter of application
    2. A resume / vita that presents information and experiences
    relevant to GTA duties
    3. Two letters of recommendation attesting to the candidate's
    abilities to perform GTA duties

    Candidates may include their GTA application materials along with their
    documentation for admission to the program. For full consideration for
    a GTA appointment, materials must be received by March 31, 2004.
    Appointments begin in mid/late-August and are for one academic year (9
    months), renewable, and dependent on funding. GTAs are required to
    enroll in a minimum of 6 semester hours to maintain eligibility. GTA
    appointments are half-time and carry a waiver of tuition plus a stipend
    of approximately $10,000 per academic year. Students are responsible to
    pay fees.

    Biomechanics: Primary responsibilities include delivery of
    undergraduate lab sections under the supervision of the course
    instructor, consulting with students during office hours, and assisting
    with other class administration needs.

    Exercise Physiology: Primary responsibilities include delivery of
    undergraduate lab sections under the supervision of the course
    instructor, consulting with students during office hours, and assisting
    with other class administration needs.

    Motor Control/Motor Learning/Motor Development: Primary
    responsibilities include grading of undergraduate assignments (Motor
    Development in Fall), delivery of undergraduate lab sections (Motor
    Learning in Spring) under the supervision of the course instructor,
    consulting with students during office hours, and assisting with other
    class administration needs.

    Psychology/Sociology/Statistics: Primary responsibilities are
    associated with delivery of an undergraduate statistics course (direct
    review sessions, consult with students during office hours, and assist
    with other class administration needs) with limited additional duties
    related to psychology of sport/exercise and sociology of physical
    activity courses.

    Introduction to Kinesiology: Primary responsibilities include grading
    of undergraduate assignments under the supervision of the course
    instructor, consulting with students during office hours, and assisting
    with other class administration needs. This assignment is typically
    made in combination with one of the above laboratory assistant
    positions.
