Mentoring is an interpersonal, developmental relationship that exists to benefit the mentee. Both the mentor and the mentee have roles and responsibilities in promoting high quality, effective mentoring relationship. Defining mentoring.
Departmental Level Recommendation
Mentoring alone is unlikely to make a significant difference in the successful retention, promotion, and professional development of faculty members in a department that does not support a mentoring culture. Learn more about departmental recommendations.
Mentoring for Diversity and Inclusion
Newer members of the academy are more heterogeneous than ever before. Effective faculty mentors must acquire sensitivities to differences. Learn more about mentoring for diversity and inclusion.
