Student Employment Opportunities

Student Employment

UIW students may apply online for any available postings. Working as a student employee is an excellent way to make money while attending classes, as well as, gaining valuable work experience.

All students, including international students on F-1 or J-1 Visas, may only work up to 20 hours a week while classes are in session and during breaks.

If you are interested in the Federal Work Study Program which is different from Student Employment, please visit the Financial Aid Office for detailed information.

How to Apply for Student Employment

  • Visit our employment website and click on “student”.
  • Look through the available postings and click on “apply" for any position you are qualified for.
  • Keep in mind that some positions may require a resume to be attached. If you need assistance with writing or updating a resume, you may contact the Career Services department.
