TEACHING MENTORSHIP PROGRAM
Doctoral students at KSU also participate in a Teaching Mentorship Program. All students take a semester-long workshop in learning theory and teaching methods, and students are given multiple opportunities to teach beginning in their third year in the program.
The combination of ongoing research mentorship, multiple projects in a pipeline, and a variety of teaching experience and training makes our students highly marketable for faculty positions. Recent alumni placements have included:
