Connecting with Faculty Mentors

This workshop presents strategies for connecting with faculty members and sustaining the researcher-mentor relationship. Hear advice garnered from successful student researchers and professors about topics including: locating potential mentors; making the initial contact; discussing mentor/mentee expectations and responsibilities; communicating throughout the project; and nurturing the relationship into the future.

These workshops, jointly sponsored by the University Scholars Program and the Office of Undergraduate Research and Fellowships, are open to all Northeastern University undergraduates. Students must attend “Minding the Gap,” “Connecting with Faculty Mentors,” and “From Problem to Proposal” in order to be eligible to apply for a 2017 Scholars Independent Research Fellowship or Summer Independent Research Fellowship (SIRF). Students whose SIRF projects will include the use of human subjects or vertebrate animals are also required to attend “Ethical Conduct of Research.”
