Mathematics TA, marker, and Math/Comp help center application form

Use this form to apply for Math/Comp/Data Teaching Assistant, Help Centre and Marker Positions 

 

The Department of Mathematics and Computer Science is looking for teaching assistants for the Fall 2026 Semester. Review of applications will begin Monday, August 17, 2026. (Late applications may be considered.) 

By submitting this form, you grant the Math and Computer Science Dept access to view and download your 91AV transcript and student schedule to evaluate your application. 

We encourage applications from members of racialized communities, Indigenous persons, persons with disabilities, and persons of all sexual and gender identities. We seek candidates with qualifications and knowledge that contribute specifically to the further diversification of our campus community. 

The TA positions for MATH 1011, 1151, and 1311 are the best ways to start if you have no prior TA experience. TAs in these 3 classes will work in the lab room with students, helping them complete weekly assignments; in addition, the TAs will mark the lab assignments. These positions will require 4-5 hours/week. 

The Data Science 3101 TA position is a special opportunity for a senior student. This TA will attend the classes, helping the professor carry out in-class tutorials, assisting students with activities, and may also be involved in grading outside of class. This position requires 3 hours/week. 

The Marking and Help Centre positions are intended for senior students with previous experience. Markers will grade and provide written feedback on homework assignments; Help Centre TAs will provide in-person support for MATH, COMP and DATA courses. The Marking positions require up to 5 hours/week; the Help Centre requires 2 hours/week. 

We have a conflict-of-interest policy that applies to relationships between teaching assistants and students. If you: (1) have been hired as a paid tutor for students in your lab section, or (2) have a personal or social relationship with students in your lab section, you may be in a conflict of interest. As a TA, you will be asked to disclose such relationships.
