Working as a student assistant
Several courses make use of student assistants. The menu on the left of this page shows courses that currently have vacancies for such positions. NL or EN indicates the language the course is taught in.
Note that if you are a non-EU student, you will need a work permit. It takes about 5-6 weeks to file all the paperwork, so keep that in mind when applying for a job as a teaching assistant.
Additionally, note that you need to be in the Netherlands to work as a student assistant.
If you have general questions about the position of a student assistant (e.g. concerning your contract, or how to claim hours worked), please contact coord.support-science@ru.nl
Note that the following list does not contain current vacancies. This is a list of all courses that usually require assistants. If you are interested in helping out during any of these courses or need more information, do not hesitate to contact the course coordinator. Below list is based on academic year 2024/2025, so be aware that some changes may occur in the next academic year. We (coord.support-science@ru.nl) will try to update the list as soon as possible after the course schedule for next year has been made available.
