| Faculty Mentoring Academy – UCI Academic Personnel | Mentorship is a powerful tool for working with graduate students. It also enhances collaborative relationships between early-career and senior faculty. Faculty, however, often mentor in the way they were mentored. Many faculty do not have routine formal mentor training. In this workshop series, we will use a discussion and case study approach to share and improve our skills for mentoring graduate students and other trainees. We will focus on the development of applicable mentoring strategies. All faculty are welcome to attend.
The Faculty Mentoring Academy will be delivered via a series of five workshops held during the course of each academic year. Faculty who attend three of the five workshops (over a two-year period) will be eligible to receive a certificate, reflecting the designation of having attended the “Faculty Mentoring Academy.” All workshops are from 10 a.m. to noon at Donald Bren Hall 6011 Seminar Room:
- Wednesday, Feb. 12: “Inspiring Motivation” | RSVP
- Tuesday, March 4: “Aligning Expectations” | RSVP
- Thursday, May 22: “Effective Communication” | RSVP

While individual projects are not required to encompass all perspectives on a given topic, CMH-funded projects must be grounded in academic research and foster an inclusive space for diverse viewpoints. Learn more.
Eligibility: ONLY UCI Academic Senate and clinical faculty are eligible to apply for these grants. Center for Medical Humanities’ Executive Committee members are NOT eligible to apply for funding. Center for Medical Humanities’ Advisory Committee members may apply for funding.
Priority will be given to proposals from faculty in the Schools of the Arts, Humanities and Medicine as the lead schools in the interschool center. Individuals from other schools are welcome to apply, particularly if their proposed project is in collaboration with a colleague from one of the three lead schools. We encourage collaborative efforts that represent more than one academic discipline and therefore more than one perspective.
