Mentoring Programs for Junior Faculty
Just as you do not stop learning after college and
graduate school, you also do not stop needing guidance
and support. In fact, the years as a junior faculty
member, young doctor, or new employee may be the most
uncertain, stressful and worrisome years of your life.
Finding a mentor during this turbulent time will have
a huge positive effect -- helping you to navigate your
way in a new position, and increasing your chance of
receiving tenure or a promotion. Many hospitals and
universities are beginning faculty-mentoring programs.
If you are a senior member of the faculty or a brand
new employee, encourage your institution to join the
others.
