"One of the greatest values of mentors is the ability to see ahead what others cannot see and to help them navigate a course to their destination."
– John C. Maxwell
Come and join us for this year’s Graduate Faculty Mentorship Workshop Series. Learn from Ohio State’s own experts and this year’s GFMA winners about mentorship.
This workshop series is open to:
For graduate students, navigating the changing world of academia while researching, writing a dissertation and working towards a degree can be difficult to face alone.
For Mary Stromberger, vice provost for graduate education and dean of the graduate school, her lack of a personal mentoring experience helped motivate her to relaunch the Ohio State Mentoring Initiative (OSMI) in the graduate school.
The Ohio State University’s Graduate School announced the successful completion of its 2025 Summer Research Opportunity Program (SROP), celebrating a cohort of 40 undergraduate students who spent the summer immersed in a world-class research environment. The program, which concluded with a research symposium and closing reception, is a critical initiative aimed at providing students interested in graduate school with a pathway to graduate education.
SACNAS advances Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) by hosting the largest multidisciplinary conference in the country. NDiSTEM offers a unique space where attendees can bring their whole selves to STEM. This transformative event equips, empowers, and energizes participants through research presentation opportunities, professional development sessions, an Academic and Career Expo, and vibrant cultural celebrations that build community.
Congratulations to the 2025 Graduate Faculty Mentorship Award recipients! This prestigious award, presented by the Ohio State Graduate School, honors the exceptional guidance and support provided by graduate faculty to master’s, doctoral, and professional students.
