Graduate School Research and Mentoring Grant

    Graduate School Research and Mentoring Grant

    Graduate students who have completed the Mentoring Academy will be encouraged to submit a research proposal. Selected proposals will included an undergraduate student mentee. The research will be conducted through the fall and spring semesters, during which the graduate student mentors will practice what they have learned about mentoring during the Mentoring Academy. Additionally, graduate students will be required to participate in monthly continuing learning meetings. By the end of the spring semester, undergraduate students will be expected to have presented at an institutional conference, and graduate students will be expected to have participated in a panel discussion at the Graduate Student Research Conference. Graduate student-undergraduate student pairs will receive a grant award totaling $1500 (graduate student $1000, undergraduate student $500). Up to ten pairs may be selected per year.
