Genetics

The educational bureau Biosciences is looking for student assistants to assist the Genetics course (NWI-BB091) in the second quarter of the second year Biology.

Experience as an assistant and having completed the course BB091 yourself are preferable.
Enthusiasm, motivation and still being a student at Radboud University yourself are a must!

Note that if you are a non-EU student, you will need a working permit. It takes about 6-7 weeks to file all the paperwork, so keep that in mind when applying for a job as a teaching assistant, as well as that you are allowed to work a maximum of 16 hours per week. 

Additionally, note that you need to be in the Netherlands to work as a teaching assistant. This has to with the fact that the UWV (the Dutch Employee Insurance Agency) cannot check if the labour laws are met when you are abroad. 

Interested to assist this course? Please send an email to the course coordinator Janny Peters (jl.peters@science.ru.nl) for more information. The timetable of the course is as follows:
- 10 Nov 2023 (10:30-12:30) Mutations & Chromosomal Variation 
- 16 Nov 2023 (10:30-12:30) Advanced Mendelian

- 24 Nov 2023 (10:30-12:30) Quantitative Genetics
- 30 Nov 2023 (10:30-12:30) Population Genetics

Please keep in mind that if you become a student assistant for the first time, you have to follow a mandatory training conducted. 

If you have general questions about the position of a student assistant (e.g. concerning your contract, e-number of how to declare your working hours), please contact coord.support@ru.nl
