Choosing a faculty mentor

If you want to go to graduate school or would like career advice, it is very useful to have a faculty member whom you can ask advice and questions of concerning your future. All Juniors and Seniors are encouraged to select a faculty member to be their mentor. This is very easy and can be done on-line. If possible, you should choose a mentor that matches your own research interests.

Below is a list of faculty at UD who you could select as your mentor. You should use the links to explore who you think would best match you as a mentor. Then, decide who would be your first choice and also pick a second choice , in case the first faculty member has too many students already.

When you have decided, click here to go the page where you actually select your mentor. You will be asked to enter your last name and your UD userid (the portion of your UD e-mail address before the "@" sign) before entering your selection.
