Frequently Asked Questions
There are many ways to find a faculty mentor. One great way to start this process is to ask around and speak to faculty members who may be interested in similar subject matter/research as you. While this doesn’t always work, they may also be able to connect you with other faculty with similar interests.
Unfortunately we don’t have access to this information as faculty are all working on different research. We always recommend that students conduct their own independent research. If you would like to help with a faculty member's research our recommendation is to ask around.
