Most Ph.D. students in mathematics receive a Graduate Teaching Assistantship and support is usually provided for a five-year period. Teaching assistants (TAs) receive a University Tuition Scholarship (a service-free award that pays all tuition costs), student health insurance coverage, and a 12-month stipend. For 2024-25, the stipend is $36,500. Read more about the duties and training of teaching assistants.
