Graduate Student Instructorship

Graduate Student Instructorship (GSI) is a very significant pedagogical component of graduate training in sociology. Being a GSI enables our graduate students to acquire the pedagogical and communicative skills they will need in their future careers. All of the incoming graduate students in sociology have to acquire at least one academic year of GSI experience. Our GSIs are unionized and represented by the Graduate Employees Organization (GEO) which is often led by sociology graduate students as well.
