The Use of Students in Outside Employment policy provides guidance on the employment of students by faculty and staff for work external to the University. Effective December 16, 2014, those who wish to employ students in non-University activities must obtain written approval from their Department Head/Dean/Director prior to employing the student. The University requires that each student receive a written offer of employment with a specific scope of work or job description, the rate of compensation and the expected hours of work. In addition, the student should receive a fair market value rate of pay. A template for the written offer of employment is included with the policy.
