At the UWMC I learned everything from placing IV lines to performing CPR and saving lives. On a typical day I see between 30-80 patients and their complaints can range from lacerations to cardiac arrest. The nurses I work with are highly competent and compassionate. The management is proactive and works hard to provide a safe work environment yet also – more... attempts to make the staff feel like coming to work it just as pleasurable as going home. The UWMC ED is like a family. – less

Working at the Anthropology Luminescence Dating Lab at the University of Washington was a good job to have while in school working towards my BA.

It's always a busy day and several projects to to plan execute on a weekly basis.
We all learn something new on a regular basis and enjoy teaching fellow co-workers, as well as the grad students and post-docs.

The hardest part of the job sometimes was the long commute

I was a graduate student teaching and research assistant. Apprentice scientist for no pay like all other graduate students. No surprises for anyone who's been through it. My time at the SSLI lab at the University of Washington was particularly rewarding because of the quality of research being done there.

From my experience, the faculty and staff at UW are some of the most passionate educators I have had the pleasure of working with.

Good staring place get experience. Don't expect to get challenged. You will get bored pretty easily

Great place to work, very collaborative environment. Rich envirinment for infectious disease research. They have good educational seminars from renowened speakers on topics relevant to our research.

I do volunteer and I love it. I get treat as one of them without showing preferences.

My co-workers are absolutely wonderful. However, poor management combined with low pay and bad air quality/environmental conditions has created a high turnover rate. Vacations have been limited and the quality of work has suffered.

I worked part time at the University tutoring students in lower level economics. It was very enjoyable working alongside other students.

I enjoy everything about the University of Washington. They work with my class hours and are understanding of homework and tests.

Wakes up at 6:00 am to check mail and schedule the rest of your day. If nothing important comes up, you can go back to sleep for another 2 hours and work on your project. If any important emergent project comes up, be ready to catch the first bus to campus.
