Supporting student success
Now entering its sixth year, the Faculty of Arts and Science Grad Mentor program is a peer mentoring program that connects prospective students with current MA and PhD students to aid them in their decision-making process.
카지노 게임 컬렉션The mentor program allows prospective students to ask their peers specific questions about the program that they are interested in attending,카지노 게임 컬렉션 says Graduate Mentor Coordinator Julia Mcdonell. 카지노 게임 컬렉션Being able to talk to a student is a great opportunity to learn what a program is really like 카지노 게임 컬렉션 beyond just what courses you might be taking. Being able to get that insider knowledge of the graduate programs allows prospective students to make a much more informed decision on if graduate school is right for them. Having that one-on-one conversation can help a student decide what graduate program they are interested in, and they can get specific advice on the application process from someone who just went through it.
Dan Reddy, PhD candidate, Department of Chemistry, is entering his second year as a mentor. He jumped at the opportunity to become a mentor again after a successful first year of meeting students interested in studying chemistry and integrating himself into the graduate mentor community.
카지노 게임 컬렉션Two successes that I can highlight include: I had one particularly dedicated mentee who asked a lot of questions about graduate school, and even though they did not (immediately) pursue grad school after our interactions, they told me that the info was very helpful and that they appreciated being able to directly talk to someone who is currently in graduate school,카지노 게임 컬렉션 Reddy says.
카지노 게임 컬렉션Secondly, through the mentor program, I connected with a second-year undergraduate chemistry student who was considering grad school in the future and wanted to get a head start on being involved with graduate students and the graduate community at large. In turn, I was able to involve this mentee in a chemistry-centric student group that I presently lead, and this mentee was able to further connect with grad students, as well as learn about and directly impact the graduate student experience while still an undergrad.카지노 게임 컬렉션
Pungavi Linghan, a Masters student in Classics and Archaeology, joined the mentor program for the first time this year.
카지노 게임 컬렉션This is something I카지노 게임 컬렉션ve been a big believer in since my first year of undergraduate studies at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s,카지노 게임 컬렉션 she explains. 카지노 게임 컬렉션It카지노 게임 컬렉션s about the student experience 카지노 게임 컬렉션 helping them feel more included, making them feel safe and comfortable at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s. I came in feeling very alone, the online environment did not help with that. Instead of feeling bad for myself, I dedicated myself to getting involved and creating safe spaces for students just like me.카지노 게임 컬렉션
Linghan believes that prospective students who are perhaps nervous about choosing Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s (or starting their education at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s), would benefit from meeting a mentor who is available for any questions they might have, and to help them feel welcome at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s.
카지노 게임 컬렉션I카지노 게임 컬렉션ve been enjoying studying at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s so much that I stayed on for my masters, it카지노 게임 컬렉션s my fifth year here. I want to show them how wonderful this community can be.카지노 게임 컬렉션
