WHAT FACULTY ADVISORS NEED TO KNOW: 

  • Students may work no more than 37.5 hours each week.
  • Students are responsible for coordinating with their advisors to plan their schedule and for clocking in and out for their time worked. 
  • June 19 and July 4 are holidays and students are encouraged not to work. Seasonal employees do not receive holiday pay or extra pay for hours worked on a holiday.
  • Students must clock out for a 30-minute break during any shift of 7.5 hours or more.
  • Students who are awarded Research in Science Fellowships funded by CIS will receive two lump-sum payments and do not need to record their hours.
