The CCWH mentorship program also matches members with more senior people within the profession (participants may also be asked to mentor junior members).
If you are a graduate student (or if you are a Ph.D. seeking guidance about issues such as applying for a job and/or submitting your first article), please write “graduate” in the subject line and provide the following information:
- Name
- Institution (including Department/Program)
- Fields/interests
- Aspirations (positions/career path you envision)
If you have obtained your Ph.D. and seek guidance about junior/mid-career issues, or if you are available to serve as a mentor, please write “postgraduate” in the subject line and provide the following information:
- Name
- Institution (including Department/Program)
- Fields/interests
- Current position
- Aspirations (positions/career path you pursue)
- Interested to serve as a mentor, a mentee, or both (e.g., an associate could act as a mentor for an assistant and could also receive mentorship by a full professor).
Women at the advanced stage of their career (e.g., full professors, independent scholars, and/or people in administrative positions) can also ask for a peer mentor. We will be happy to match you up!
