Texas A&M University Employer Reviews

I had to learn everything that was being offered such as serving students, making food (pizza, burgers, grilled cheese, etc.), cash register, and cleaning cafeteria. It taught me to be multi-task of being able to handle everything at once.

I am just a lecturer in my department. The colleague are nice and willing to help.

It was tough love but my mentor and professors made my experience unforgettable. A wonderful chapter in my life!

N/A. Available upon request. Gig Em'!

Great folks to work with.

Excellent work environment, job requirements are as expected for a TAing position. A&M has a great school culture and treats employees fairly well.

I worked there for 2 years and had a lot of fun teaching public communications. You get a lot of freedom on how you want to teach your class. The students made the job very rewarding but the pay was very low but is expected as a graduate assistant.

Doctoral work at Texas A&M University was a unique experience where I was able to gain a knowledge base and set of applied and laboratory skills. As with any graduate assistant-ship, balancing work with educational goals is a challenge. However, faculty in the Department of Health and Kinesiology are very helpful and always eager to share wisdom.

The interaction between students was great at the facility I worked in.However, the faculty/staff was not very consistent with communicating with its student workers, often leaving room for errors and unnecessary blaming.

Office was very unorganized, without proper supervision. Was never properly trained, and had to learn everything through trial and error.

Good pay for a student job, I get to drive my fellow Aggies to class on a daily basis.

On a daily basis we get to see the success of our laboratory work in the over 30 transgenic animals (sheep, goats, cattle, and pigs) we have in the pastures and pens out the windows of our lab. We have combined upcoming molecular biology tools with assisted reproductive techniques to advance the field of animal agriculture. I have become an expert in – more... cell and molecular biology techniques as well as assisted reproductive technologies. As a senior member of the lab at TAMU, I have honed the skills of a project manager, directing a research team and facilitating new member training. I have developed high standards of communication, to those under my direction, as well as to the senior investigators in the lab. – less

It is what you would expect being a part-time student worker's position.

I worked here during my grad program. A small job that consisted of being a peer mentor and orienter. I appreciated the opportunity to help students begin their college career and to give them a few pointers on creating the right path. I also worked along side with professors to create community projects and assignments for them.

Helped everyone in the department.
Very friendly and helpful co-workers.

I was a graduate student researcher and teacher during my enrollment at Texas A&M.

I taught introductory composition classes; it was my first teaching experience. My colleagues were very helpful; the students polite.

One of the best places to work.. Great work-culture and supportive staff.

My typical day at work would be where I would be assigned task to complete on developing a website or updating the same. Also I am responsible for content management of the website. I would receive e-mails requesting for content updates or deletion. The thing that I learned when working here is time and task management. I learnt how to prioritize my – more... tasks and keep the work rolling smoothly. We have the best team to work with and all are helpful towards each other. The hardest part of my job is to know what tasks to prioritize and which ones needs to be give higher importance. The most enjoyable part of the job is my team who I work with, the people who I meet and share my day with. There are a lot of things that I learn everyday from my work and I love working here – less

Very relaxed place to study and work. Very much enjoyed teaching labs and giving back to the next group of student.

Texas A&M University Information Technology is one of the best employers I've had to date.

A typical day involves me answering phones filing admission packets for the graduate program and well as organizing them. I have learned how the Counseling Department here on campuis operates as well as how to multi-task better. My supervisor is great and very understanding when it comes to being a student worker.
