Our Program: Mentorship
For potential mentors…
If you are a Northwestern graduate student or postdoctoral researcher interested in mentoring a high school student in materials-related research this summer, please reach out to us at nurph@u.northwestern.edu or contact Sankalp Koduvayur Ganeshan at sankalp.k.ganeshan@u.northwestern.edu!
Mentors are graduate students from Northwestern University representing a diverse range of disciplines, including materials science and engineering, chemistry, biology, physics, and more. Each NURPH student is paired with 1-3 mentors who provide guidance in research and learning, working closely with students on daily research activities.
Moreover, mentorship does not stop at the conclusion of the summer program. Our goal is to build lasting mentor-mentee relationships that extend beyond the program and into students’ careers.
