Calling all psych faculty on #academictwitter Do you have undergraduates or post-baccs in your lab who are considering applying to PhD programs in psychology? What about graduate students and post-docs interested in mentoring? Please consider sharing information about NPSP!
The goal of the NextGen Psych Scholars Program (NPSP) is to cultivate long-term support structures between diverse undergrad or post-baccalaureate mentees and current graduate students and post-docs to 1)embrace and celebrate the unique journeys that have led current graduate students to pursue a PhD and 2) to inspire and empower the next generation of scholars while enhancing feelings of belongingness in academia. In addition to outlining the process of applying to graduate school, a significant amount of time will be spent discussing how to both challenge and navigate the “hidden curriculum” (e.g. networking, advocating for yourself) of academia. If you are interested in joining for 2023-2024, please fill out our application at https://z.umn.edu/NPSP23-24 by 6/10.
