Become a mentor to BIPOC graduate students

Posted by Faculty of Graduate Studies on December 8, 2021 in General Announcements

If you are a member of the Black, Indigenous, and People of Colour (BIPOC) community and would be interested in becoming a mentor to BIPOC graduate students as part of the BIPOC Graduate Student Mentoring Academy, please complete the .

Mentors from a range of backgrounds are invited to participate, from university instructors, researchers and administrators to professionals, elders and community leaders.

The Mentorship Academy will launch in partnership with the Faculty of Graduate Studies in January 2022, and seeks to fill the gap in mentorship that BIPOC graduate students have reported experiencing due to underrepresentation and bias.

For more information, please read October's Dal News story on the establishment of the program or visit the BIPOC Mentoring Academy webpage, which includes additional details on the role of mentors. If you have any questions, please contact bipocmpd@dal.ca.Ìý
