Program Award for Graduate Student Mentorship

Starting in the 2022-23 academic year, departments are identified to receive the Program Award for Graduate Student Mentorship from the Graduate School. This award was launched as a way to recognize and honor graduate programs on campus who are setting standards of excellence in mentorship. Each department was chosen based on the following criteria: 

1) Having a strong Statement of Expectations for Graduate Student Mentoring.
2) Receiving excellent feedback from your graduate students on gradSERU survey questions about the quality of faculty mentoring and advising. 

This honor comes with a $1,000 award to the department to support mentoring activities.
