McNair Faculty Mentors

Among the variety of resources that we offer to our McNair scholars at St. 爱德华的 University, one of its most innovative 和 unique is the Pre-研究生 School Partnership.

This mentorship program pairs McNair Scholars with seasoned UT graduate students, who are also McNair Scholars, in their area of study to learn about unique aspects of graduate study. McNair Scholars 和 their mentors design the specific details 和 tasks of the partnership experience. 活动, assignments 和 tasks are determined through negotiation between scholars 和 their graduate student mentors, 和 a partnership contract ensures that there is both structure to 和 accountability for the experience.

Some examples of activities might include:

• attending graduate classes, seminars 和 departmental research colloquia,
• observation of graduate student teaching,
• discussions of an academic discipline, graduate study 和 career development with faculty 和 graduate students,
• attending meetings of graduate professional organizations, 《组, lab sessions 和 other academic gatherings for graduate students 和 faculty, 和
• undertaking a research project.
