Dear Faculty,



As you may know, CNAS is launching CUSP<https://cnasgrad.ucr.edu/cusp>: Career Mentoring of Underrepresented STEM Students for the Professoriate, a pilot project<https://news.ucr.edu/articles/2020/09/02/diversifying-sciences> funded by the UC-HSI Doctoral Diversity Initiative (UC-HSI DDI)<https://www.ucop.edu/graduate-studies/initiatives-outreach/uc-hsi-ddi.html> and recruiting faculty to provide career mentoring to underrepresented students seeking careers as professors.



The deadline to submit a mentor application<https://forms.gle/vPtsot5ZGHH3BFnh7> is December 1.



Faculty mentor responsibilities include a year-long program of one-on-one career mentoring, guiding the student to develop an Individual Development Plan (IDP) and research presentation, and attending/presenting in a professional development seminar series in Spring 2021. Faculty mentors receive a research stipend of $1250 for participating in the program.
