Practices in Mentoring Undergraduate
Researchers Advice for Mentors Establishing Positive Working Agreements Problems or shortcomings in the academic mentor-student relationship often come about because of misunderstandings about the expectations the parties have of one another—expectations about amount of contact, timelines and deadlines for work, what constitutes an adequate draft for submission, what qualifies as an acceptable honors thesis, and so on. Many misunderstandings can be avoided or overcome by following good academic mentoring practices such as those described below. These guidelines were compiled by the Undergraduate Research Programs office from conversations with Stanford faculty and students, the University of Michigan Ann Arbor’s How to Get the Mentoring You Want, and from unpublished resources from Yale University’s McDougal Center for Graduate Student Life. |
