Hi!

The best way to became a research assistant is starting with a degree in sciences, social sciences, humanities, marketing, computer technology ... you name it, and once you start, look around campus, through all departments looking for student positions. You will be surprised to find how many there are. A degree minimun is required, and don't worry, if you really want to be a research assistant, you will be one. Good luck!
