Teaching is an important part of the role of being an applied statistician. All Ph.D. students will have the opportunity and be encouraged to teach before completing the program. Students typically serve initially as faculty research assistants, but also are called on to assist faculty members in teaching certain courses. Students receiving stipends will probably teach an undergraduate course in the College of Business at some time during their doctoral experience. Gaining teaching experience is important for developing an overall portfolio, especially for the academic job market.

Students who are not on a graduate assistantship teach one section of an accounting class per year, and act as a faculty research assistant in your non-teaching semester. The first-year teaching assignment is to lead three one-hour discussion sessions of principles of accounting.
