We have two user classes: team leaders and candidates. Team leaders can be anyone who is a veteran of a team. Generally, this includes professors who are searching for UROP, M-Eng, or UAP students to work in their labs, or professors who are searching for qualified TA'sTAs. It can also include Ph.D students who are looking to gain more teaching and mentorship experiences. On the other hand, candidates are generally searching for such a position. The candidates class encompasses the student group, including both undergraduate and graduate students.
