Employment at the UA Libraries/Center for Creative Photography


Undergraduate and Graduate Student Positions

Both UA undergraduate and graduate students are eligible to apply for student job openings at the University Libraries and Center for Creative Photography (CCP). Open positions are often posted on the UA Wildcat Joblink , but the Library always accepts applications from interested applicants for general student employment.

UA Career Services has compiled employment resources across the UA, including the Wildcat Joblink, onto one webpage for easy reference. The material comes from a variety of units and includes campus employment, off-campus employment, federal work-study, graduate student employment and internship and career-related experience.

  • For summer or winter session employment, students must be enrolled either the previous session or the current session.
