Job postings open for Ignite work study program

The Office of Career Development & Experiential Learning has announced that job proposals for the 2019-20 Ignite Work Study program are now live. Ignite funds part-time jobs on campus for students and provides them an opportunity for financial benefit and to build skills relevant to their career development.

It is open to all UWindsor students — some restrictions apply; view the Ignite website for details. If approved, positions can receive a wage subsidy up to $1,000 per semester.

Applicants whose positions receive funding will be notified the week of Aug. 19. Students can begin working as early as Sept. 3.

The deadline to submit a job proposal is July 21. All job proposals must be submitted through Qualtrics.

Faculty or staff members interested in hiring a student through the Ignite program are encouraged to attend an information session to learn about the program and the changes being introduced this year:

  • July 11 at 11 a.m. or 3 p.m.
  • July 16 at 2 p.m.
