The Researcher Development Program (RDP) seeks to expand access to academic networks that dually support graduate students’ personal and professional well-being and scholarly development.
The RDP fulfills its mission by:
- Striving to create accessible, inclusive, and humanizing professional development spaces
- Promoting sustained, professionally enriching collaboration between faculty members and graduate students
- Providing research, writing, presentation, and publication opportunities aligned with participants’ academic and professional goals
- Promoting opportunities for faculty members to hone their mentorship skills.
We kick off this academic year with 14 mentors and 17 mentees! Currently, the RDP Planning Committee is supporting mentors and mentees as they begin their semester, setting their goals for the year, and planning how they will develop their final projects. Throughout their experience, we intend to support their relationship building, creativity, and project development. Here we provide a list of the mentor-mentee matches for the 2021-2022 cohort.
