Faculty Participation in the Multicultural Apprenticeship Program

A faculty member helps a student in a previous MAP program.

The CANR encourages faculty participation in the Multicultural Apprenticeship Program. If you are a CANR faculty member or chair, please take the time to personally invite faculty from your department to apply to mentor a student.

While the task of identifying MAP mentors is extremely challenging, being a mentor is extremely rewarding. MAP coordinators are seeking assistance in identifying research associates, postdocs, farm managers and graduate students who could also serve as potential mentors.

MAP provides $500 incentive grants to those faculty or graduate students to assist with costs associated with mentoring.
