Research Assistant. A research assistant (RA) works with faculty on the faculty member’s academic and research projects, both at the University and in the field. RA research duties vary across departments and projects, are defined by the faculty member who serves as principal investigator, and are thus administered independently by each department and/or investigator. The University and the Union acknowledge that due to the nature of research and education in the sciences, the research being conducted by an RA on behalf of a principal investigator may also be, in whole or in part, in furtherance of the Graduate Student Employee’s thesis. The amount of time spent on their dissertation research is an academic matter at the discretion of the graduate student in respectful and frequent consultation with their advisor. Appointments are made by the Graduate School on the basis of departmental recommendations.

Research Assistant. Research assistants will be placed on the AC pay scale based on their master's degree or a bachelor's degree followed by a PhD program. For research assistants with a bachelor's degree and a subsequent PhD program, it is agreed that, for scientific university positions, they are placed at step 5 on the AC pay scale; a special pensionable qualification-based supplement is then granted in the first year of the appointment in the amount of DKK 20,500 (31.3.2012). After the first year of the appointment, the supplement increases to DKK 40,500 (31.3.2012). For the entire period of the appointment, the supplement is granted for special qualifications acquired through the research training program. If the research assistant has relevant work experience that can justify a year’s seniority, s/he can be granted the high supplement from the start of the appointment. For both placements, a qualification-based supplement of DKK 19,700 can be granted (31.3.2012) based on prerequisites acquired prior to the appointment (e.g. a PhD degree) based on or performance beyond what is normally expected/special qualifications in research, dissemination and teaching. In special cases, a one-off bonus can be granted for exceptional achievement or performance beyond what is normally expected.
