| Abstract | The paper describes changes to an existing mentoring program for STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) graduate students. We made the changes after feedback suggested that our participants had a hard time fitting mentoring in to their busy lives. The changes include: increased levels of interaction with the participants via email, revisions to the format and topics of events, and revisions of the mentoring handbook. The results from program evaluations are presented and indicate that recent changes have had positive effects on retention of participants and levels of interaction between mentees and mentors. |
