ASE Orientation Dates

UAW Orientations are mandatory for new employees.

Academic Student Employees and Graduate Student Researchers are required to attend an Employee Orientation with representatives from UAW 2865, the union of Student Researchers and Academic Student Employees at UC. At this orientation, union leaders will familiarize you with your rights, protections, and benefits as a worker under the UC-UAW 2865 Collective Bargaining Agreements.

The new worker orientation for GSIs will continue to be during the GSI Teaching Conference on August 23, from 11:15 a.m. – 11:45 a.m for Engineering, Computer Sciences, Quantitatives, Qualitative Social Sciences, and Studio, Art & Environmental Design, and at 4:45 - 5:15 pm for Biological Sciences, Chemistry, Physical Sciences, Humanities, Reading & Composition, Foreign Languages, and Quantitative Social Sciences.
