Mentorship WOP

Full course description

The Mentor programme is closely connected to PSY4142 (research proposal).

This module aims at making our new Master students feel comfortable at FPN. Our mentors share their experience in academia with the students and by doing so broaden the students’ horizon. They guide the students in the transfer from a BA to a MA study level and support the students’ adjustments to international, multicultural, interdisciplinary, and PBL based education. Also, the mentors provide preparation, orientation and reflection on study progress, internship choices, and post-Master career options.

Voluntary but highly recommended meetings are scheduled for the students. The main themes of those meetings are 1) starting at UM, 2) the research internship and 3) future career, but the meetings are open for other topics based on student needs.

Upon request, the mentor also engages individually with a student.
