The
mentorship program in Finance prepares doctoral students for their eventual
transition to professional careers in academia and industry by fostering the
acquisition and development of teaching and research expertise through individual
apprenticeship with the faculty. In
teaching, doctoral students are initially assigned by the department Chair to
assist faculty in classroom instruction.
They observe the teaching styles of faculty, participate in the
discussion and creation of teaching materials, provide tutorial aid for
undergraduate and graduate students, and otherwise immerse themselves in the
teaching experience. Upon successful
completion of this initial assignment, doctoral students are given pedagogical
responsibility for their own section of undergraduate courses under appropriate
faculty direction and supervision. In
research, doctoral students are strongly encouraged to initiate and complete a
research paper prior to taking their comprehensive exams in the major. They learn how to conduct research by doing
a guided independent study with faculty of their choice. The results of the research are disseminated
to faculty and doctoral students for comment and critique. |
