Miner Master Mentors
The Miner Master Mentors (M3) program provides confidential mentoring by a cadre of accomplished and respected Missouri S&T faculty. Established to enhance a culture of mentorship on campus, Master Mentors are available as a resource to all tenure-track, tenured, non-tenure track, and contingent faculty beyond their S&T departmental resources. The Master Mentors have a collective breadth of expertise to provide meaningful and accurate advice and information regarding all aspects of faculty professional development, such as:
- Research
- Teaching
- Service & Leadership
- Promotion and Tenure
- Non-Tenure Track Faculty Affairs
- Service Learning
- Early Career Challenges
This program is completely voluntary and confidential for mentees, who initiate and seek out mentors based on their need. Contact the Master Mentors listed below to start a conversation. Miner Master Mentors are happy to meet with you face-to-face or via Zoom, whichever you prefer.
