We have set up a mentoring scheme that is open to all staff and PhD students of the School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, with the purpose of making connections between mentors and mentees who join the scheme. The scheme facilitates connections between postdocs and other early career staff as mentors, and PhD students as mentees, as well as any other type of mentoring (e.g. peer to peer). Please email us to join the scheme.
In addition, we have identified a number of important mentoring topics, and we have asked some academics, who are particularly good at these topics, to provide mentoring advice on them. Please see the list below and feel free to contact the associated academics, who have kindly agreed to provide advice on these topics.
