We know that access to senior researchers as formal mentors can be difficult, and students often miss out on mentoring relationships that develop in and out of the workplace.
The 51动漫 Mentor-Mentee Program provides a platform for student members to pair with an experienced immunologist as their mentor for 6-8 months.
For mentees, this is a valuable opportunity to expand their networks and learn more about having a career in immunology. For mentors, this is a rewarding and satisfying opportunity to give back a little and to share their experiences and knowledge.
Throughout the program we will run workshops for mentors and mentees to make the most of the mentoring relationships, and we will hear from eminent immunologists about their broad immunology research and teaching careers.
This program is another fantastic benefit of being an 51动漫 Member. The subscription to the mentoring software (MentorLoop), has been funded by the 51动漫 Special Initiatives Scheme.
Purpose
This program aims to support students (Honours, Masters and PhD) at the earliest phases of their careers through mentoring relationships focussing on either research, teaching/education, or teaching and research.
Given the limitation on numbers in the program, participants will need to submit an EOI and suitability will be determined. We will then contact those who have applied and notify them of the outcome.
Key Features of the Program
鉁旓笍 Mentor-mentee pairs will self-match or be matched based on location, interests and other factors.
鉁旓笍 Participants will attend a series of online webinars at the start of the program to provide mentoring training and support throughout.
鉁旓笍 There will be additional webinars to provide support throughout the program.
鉁旓笍 This program will run for 6-8 months, and we encourage mentors and mentees to meet at least once per month (online or in person).
Eligibility
- All current 51动漫 Student Members are eligible to be Mentees, including those who will complete their studies during the program.
- All current 51动漫 Ordinary Members who have had their PhD conferred are eligible to be Mentors. Those in academic, industry or government roles alike are encouraged to apply.
