Subject: [Graduate Coordinators] Graduate Student Workshops & Online Mentoring Program

On behalf of Faculty Affairs and the Office of Diversity and Inclusive Excellence:





Dear graduate students,

We have some exciting opportunities for you this fall that we hope you take advantage of.

Our fall workshops will provide you with practical help with the challenges you face in your research and teaching. The three series offered in our Campus Connections workshop program address a broad range of challenges faced in academia.


*         Getting Published<http://diversity.arizona.edu/getting-published> includes opportunities to learn about grants, book proposals, and faculty writing groups.

*         Advancing Faculty Careers<http://diversity.arizona.edu/advancing-faculty-careers> will provide you with practical strategies on mentoring, combatting imposter syndrome, and addressing gender differences in academic careers.

*         The Diversity in the Classroom<http://diversity.arizona.edu/diversity-classroom> series provides workshops on creating inclusive classrooms and includes an opportunity to earn a "Leader in Classroom Diversity & Inclusion" certificate.

Given that mentoring is so beneficial to people in academia, we're excited to announce that all of our graduate students are eligible to create free accounts for the National Center for Faculty Development & Diversity (NCFDD)<http://diversity.arizona.edu/national-center-faculty-development-diversity>.  This nationally recognized organization provides online career development and mentoring resources that can increase success with publications and securing external funding, increase confidence as a researcher and scholar, lead to healthier relationships with departmental colleagues, and provide external mentors, sponsors, and collaborators.

We hope that you take advantage of these exciting programs.  All of our programming is based on research and best practices shown to increase success, and we want you to feel happy, successful, and satisfied at the University of Arizona.  If you have questions or comments, please email me at lahunter at email.arizona.edu<mailto:lahunter at email.arizona.edu>.

Best wishes for a productive semester!
Laura
