Many RA opportunities are ideal for pre-doctoral candidates as these positions represent a powerful opportunity for qualified candidates to expand their research resume before pursuing doctoral studies. Although these positions are not affiliated with the school’s doctoral program, they offer a wide variety of faculty-driven research challenges - from the collection and analysis of data to sourcing and support for academic publications -plus a generous Tuition Assistance Program (TAP) benefit toward pre-requisite courses.

Research Associates are an integral part of the community who typically complete two, 1-year terms with more than one faculty member, supporting analytics, quantitative research, and field research, for a broad range of faculty initiated studies in areas such as finance, strategy, and behavioral science. Appropriate candidates will demonstrate strong GPAs from leading academic institutions, and for some roles, should be familiar with either data manipulation tools such as STATA, Python, MATLAB or R, or other methodologies such as lab experience or experimental design.

Former RAs have told us that the skills they develop in researching, writing, interviewing, analysis, and project management create a springboard to a wide range of options. In addition, a close working relationship with faculty members who are generous teachers and mentors is often cited as one of the greatest advantages of a position.

When is Research Assistant/Associate/Fellow a correct title for a PhD student?

What is the correct term for a PhD student who does entirely research and is paid through third-party funds?

One can see that sometimes people doing a PhD call themselves a Research Associate or Research Assistant (in a very few cases also Research Fellow). I am looking for clarification regarding which term would be appropriate and also why the others are not.

I can't find a clear definition. If this is country dependent I would like to know this for the UK and Germany.

  • 3 I don't know whether it could be regarded as technically correct, but in the UK, to call a PhD student a "Research Associate/Fellow" is very likely to misinterpreted. These terms almost always apply to someone who has already completed their PhD and is conducting postdoctoral research. –  user2390246 Aug 23, 2016 at 16:02
  • 3 "Research assistant" might also suggest a master-level student who isn't pursuing a PhD at all. –  Relaxed Aug 23, 2016 at 20:46

How about "PhD student"?

Since you also asked about Germany: in German you can call yourself "Doktorand" or "Promovend". But also in Germany, "PhD student" would be perfectly fine.

If you want to leave out the "student" part, you might call yourself "PhD candidate".

Be careful to avoid calling yourself something you are not (e.g. "Dr."), since particularly in Germany that might be illegal.

  • I agree with your answer. However one can see that sometimes people doing a PhD call themselves a Research Associate or Research Assistant (in a very few cases also Research Fellow). Hope you can clarify which term would be appropriate and also why the others are not. –  holzkohlengrill Aug 23, 2016 at 8:40
  • 1 @holzkohlengrill: as long as it isn't a protected title, you can call yourself anything. However, you need to consider what you want to achieve. If you want to achieve that people understand what you do (conducting a PhD project), then I think that "PhD student" or "PhD candidate" is more appropriate. –  Danny Ruijters Aug 23, 2016 at 8:48
  • I've added the OP's comment to the text of the question, since it seems to be an integral part of what they are trying to ask. You may want to edit your answer to incorporate your own response comment. –  ff524 Aug 23, 2016 at 15:59
  • 1 I'll mention that at my alma mater, there was in fact a difference between a PhD student and a PhD candidate. A PhD student was anyone enrolled in the doctoral program, but you were only admitted to PhD candidacy after a couple of years of coursework and a qualifying exam. All candidates were students, but not all students were candidates. –  Nuclear Hoagie Jun 23, 2020 at 20:00

I'm not sure if it is the same in the UK and Germany, but in the US, "Research Assistant" typically means a person is being paid by a professor (typically using 3rd party funds) to work on their project, while "Research Fellow" typically means the student is being supported directly in their studies and/or research.

Fellowships are thus generally more prestigious, since they are a direct recognition of the student's value and potential by an organization, whereas assistantships simply mean that a particular professor thinks the student might be a good worker for a particular purpose.

Note that these titles are somewhat orthogonal of the question of being a Ph.D. student, as they are essentially describing one's "job" and means of support rather than one's educational program: a Masters student may also hold them, and a Ph.D. student may also hold other "job" titles (e.g., "Teaching Assistant", or even none at all).

  • So the PhD student, referenced in the question, working on research and being paid using 3rd party funds would be a "Research Assistant" in the US? I'm not entirely convinced this answers the question. What was asked was what would such a PhD student be called. The answer just describes the Research Fellow/Assistant difference –  Ian_Fin Aug 23, 2016 at 11:33
  • 1 @Ian_Fin I've added a clarifying paragraph that connects the dots. –  jakebeal Aug 23, 2016 at 11:40

In Germany, the payment (be it from 3rd-party sources or not) usually comes as a salary for an employment. That position is typically called wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter ( research employee ).

You should note, though, that the "only research" part is not included in that title, as there is no real distinction to teaching duties, as it exists, for instance, with "RA/TA".

I see that this question has been inactive for almost two years, but I notice the asker was specifically interested in the UK , and none of the answers cover that country specifically.

From my last three years of experience in the UK academia, those two positions are fairly well defined, and refer to the following:

A Research Assistant (RA) is typically neither a PhD holder nor a PhD candidate. These positions are aimed at people holding a Master degree in the relevant field, and are common in short, 1-year, research projects (such as feasibility studies). They do not count for direct progress towards any degree (but could result in publications and therefore straighten one's PhD application in the future). Additionally, they are typically one pay grade lower than the Research Fellow positions.

A Research Fellow (RF) is what one would informally call postdoctoral researcher (or just post-doc ). These are typical positions one would aim at after their PhD (and usually encourage PhD candidates close to finishing to apply as well). They typically rely on funding from longer projects, and last for 2-3 years. They also do not count for direct progress towards any degree (as the holder is expected to have a PhD, the highest possible degree in the field, already), but are a logical and expected step for a young career researcher aiming at a permanent academic position. They are also better paid than Research Assistant positions, being one pay grade higher.

For immigration purposes, universities will always have the ability to sponsor non-British applicants and support their immigration application for RF positions, while some universities and some positions are unable or unwilling to do that for RA positions. (This might be restricted to sponsoring EU-immigration, unsure about this bit).

A PhD student , PhD candidate , or just doing one's PhD are all valid terms to refer to somebody working towards obtaining their doctoral degree, regardless of their funding source. (Sometimes even just "I'm a PhD" is used, but that's common more than valid in the strictest sense.) Additionally, PhD students doing only research, as opposed to having some teaching duties attached to their contract or funding, are often times referred to as lucky .

I use the word typical a lot in my descriptions, as exceptions do exist, and I was one of them, but the details go far out of scope of this question.

  • I'm late to the party, but I found your answer nice and complete so I'd like to ask you: what about research associate ? –  Luismi98 Nov 5, 2021 at 18:01
  • 1 @Luismi98 I've never heard the term used, but a quick search and comparison of pay grades seems to indicate that it's an alternative name for "postdoctoral researcher" (holding a PhD degree already). Actually the full term is more frequently used, PDRA: Post-Doctoral Research Associate. –  penelope Nov 5, 2021 at 18:30

In Germany and Spain, if you're a PhD student who gets paid via assisting professors in their projects, typically the position is regarded as Research Assistant. I rarely see who wrote it down in CV as Research Fellow, while research associate sounds more of a postdoc.

Doctorate as a Research Associate

In most subject areas, an assistant doctorate is the traditional way to earn a doctoral degree in Germany. This is also the case at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) where the majority of our doctoral candidates are employed as research associates at the chairs and research groups. With this path to a doctorate, you will be part of the university academic staff and your doctoral supervisor will be your boss as well.

Being a research associate at the TUM, you will be closely involved in the various teaching, research and administrative tasks of your chair/research group while conducting your individual research for your dissertation. In addition, as a teacher and supervisor for student work (e.g. Bachelor thesis), you are responsible for undergraduate and graduate students. That gives you significant on-the-job skills and insight into the daily affairs of a chair/research group that will be especially beneficial towards a further career in academia. On the other hand, please note that employment as research associates may prolong the duration of your doctorate, as you will mainly work for the chair/research group during the day instead of focusing on your own doctoral research. Usually, the general research area for the doctoral research is already defined by the specific position as research associate. However, in most cases you will develop your final dissertation topic together with your thesis supervisor during the course of your employment.

As a research associate, you are employed by TUM and receive a monthly salary. Salaries for research associates are normally based on the pay scale for Civil Service in the States (West), at wage level E13. Depending on the department and the available funds, jobs are generally listed as full-time (100%) or part-time (50-75%) positions. Most open positions as research associates at TUM are announced in the TUM Job-Portal at  https://www.tum.de/en/about-tum/working-at-tum/ on a regular basis. Furthermore, jobs openings are often directly advertised on the websites of the specific chairs/research groups. In case of application, please follow the application instructions mentioned in the job advertisement.   

Please note that in case of successful job application, you still have to apply for doctoral admission at TUM. Further information on how to apply for a doctorate can be found in the section “application” .
