The Scottish Graduate School of Social Science (SGSSS) is delighted to partner with the Royal Society of Edinburgh (RSE) on a mentoring scheme for ESRC funded students.
Our aims for the scheme are:
- To awaken and develop sensitivity to the value of interdisciplinarity for researchers
- To enhance the student experience by supporting professional development and social capital (research impact, developing networks, careers advice)
- To support students’ engagement with their own professional development by encouraging them to negotiate the terms of their mentoring needs with their mentor as the relationship develops
- To contribute to the strategic aims of the RSE and SGSSS to create more cross-sector partnerships that support diverse and interdisciplinary research
Further information about this scheme can be found in our Student Guidance Document.
Applications for the 2020/21 mentoring scheme are open until Friday 31 July. ESRC Funded researchers can apply for the scheme on GradHub.
