Mentoring Management Guide
The UW Graduate School has Mentoring Memos and a Student Mentoring Guide designed to help students control and manage the mentorship that they receive, an essential task for underrepresented students in STEM. They also provide a Faculty Mentoring Guide because mentoring is a two-way street. GO-MAP recommends having a mentor in multiple areas: academic, career, psychosocial, and values.
Research and Literature Guide
The UW Libraries have a Research Guide and a Physics and Astronomy Librarian to aid students with monitoring the literature in our fields. Students may also discover scientific literature from ScienceBites' network of bites sites which feature accessible posts about individual research papers (Astrobites and ParticleBites).
Internships, Fellowships, and Summer Jobs
Graduate students can find opportunities via the AAS astronomy directory, the APS physics directory , or the general STEM directory from the Institute for Broadening Participation (IBP).
