2008 Graduate Student and Postdoctoral Scholar Mentor Awards

We are extremely pleased to announce winners of the University of Utah's 2008 Graduate Student and Postdoctoral Scholar mentor awards.

The mentor award winners are:

The award recognizes faculty who effectively guide graduate students and postdoctoral scholars throughout their professional training in a continuing, multifaceted partnership sustained by mutual respect and concern. The effective mentor serves as advisor, teacher, advocate, sponsor, and role model.

Recipients of the Graduate Student and Postdoctoral Scholar Distinguished Mentor Award will receive an award of $2,500 and be recognized at a formal event in Fall semester.

The creation of the mentoring awards coincided with the opening of the Office for Postdoctoral Affairs and Professional Programs within the Graduate School, and as part of the Graduate School's ongoing efforts to foster a culture of mentoring throughout the University.
