Student employment overview
Student employment provides Augustana students with opportunities to earn income, contribute to the campus or surrounding community, develop professional skills, and gain experience that can support future academic and career goals.
Augustana uses Augie Works to manage student employment. Students use Augie Works to search and apply for positions, monitor applications, respond to job offers, and access TimesheetX. Supervisors use Augie Works to post positions, review applicants, submit hire requests, and approve student timesheets.
Handshake continues to be used for internships, full-time and part-time opportunities outside the student employment program, career events, career fairs, and career coaching appointments.
