- Mentoring Others Results in Excellence (MORE)
- MORE supports and enhances graduate student mentoring at the University of Michigan with the goal of improving retention, productivity and overall success. This faculty committee, supported by Rackham, provides faculty with effective tools and practices for mentoring graduate students through specialized workshops, information, and consultation. MORE seeks to improve the graduate school experience for all students. The scope of MORE has begun with the STEM fields in the College of Engineering, the College of Literature, Science and the Arts, the Medical School and SNRE. Our activities in the future will expand to include other disciplines and fields.
