Student Job Opportunities

The success of the Educational Opportunity Program (EOP) is largely due to the students that work in our office. EOP values its student employees and provides opportunities for professional growth. Many of our past student employees have moved on to very exciting careers or have returned to work for EOP as professionals because of the experience gained working for the program. Two integral student assistant positions in our office are the paraprofessional advisor and intern advisor. These positions have direct contact with EOP students on a regular basis.

The paraprofessional advisor works directly with students participating in the EOP First Year Experience to help them transition to college life. These duties include academic advising, co-teaching a UNIV 102 course with an EOP staff member, and organizing cultural activities for the students. The paraprofessional advisor has the opportunity to be a great role model to new students. For complete job description and application please click the links below.
