Due to University of Texas policies and to encourage equity and collaboration within the Department of Chemical Engineering, students will not be paid in addition to a full fellowship. (Full funding is typically considered $12,000 or more.) Students supported by fellowship are expected to pause their fellowship in a timely manner to comply with the Graduate School policies against working while on fellowship. Some fellowships cannot be paused and instead are decremented based on TA compensation, such as a DOE CSGF. Students are required to communicate with their fellowship administrator in these cases. Special cases where a student receives a fellowship later in their graduate career and lacks the time to pause their fellowship may discuss solutions with the Graduate Advisor (see below). The Graduate Program Coordinator will contact the Graduate School if necessary. Students are strongly encouraged to plan ahead and to TA early in their program if they plan to apply for fully-funded fellowships in the future.

Other fellowships have different guidelines and conditions. Students are responsible for knowing the requirements of their fellowship and designing a plan that fulfills the TA requirement of the department. The Graduate Advisor may allow for alternatives in special circumstances.

CHE 398T Option
In special situations, a student will be unable to meet the suggested timelines so as to not have a conflict between TA requirements and fellowship regulations. In these cases students should register for CHE 398T Supervised Teaching. Students will need to receive permission from the Graduate Advisor that they may receive TA credit for CHE 398T prior to enrolling in the course.
