Research Assistant

"I worked as a research assistant for a little over a year, my experience was very positive and I learned an incredible amount. I wouldn't say the job required long hours but it was tough to fit it in with my school schedule at times. There was a lot of expectation to produce good results which could be stressful at times and It involved a lot of presenting to groups of people which is the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars. all and all I'm extremely happy to have worked as a researcher."

Research Assistant

"I have been working as a graduate research assistant for the University of Massachusetts Lowell for 2 years. The benefits provided with the employment are commendable and the stipend received during the tenure is also decent. Looking at other benefits like gyms, pools play important role in reviving mental and physical strength. Although Covid restricted some activities and programs but being part of such institution not only helps you grow academically but also professionally. I would recommend being a part of the institution either as a student or as an employee."

University of Massachusetts Employee

"I worked at UMass Lowell between 2016 and 2020. They are an emerging leader in American education and as a public university work hard to maintain affordability and access for all students. The work environment on campus is student driven and the type of employee that is successful is passionate about working with students and getting to know their co-workers. It's not uncommon to meet co-workers who are alum and that speaks to the close culture the university creates in spite of being such a large place. I recommend the University to anyone interested in applying."
