o Implement a Multi-Dimensional Mentoring Model to help mitigate academic isolation that may exist among URM students in STEM departments
o Establish a Professional Development Certificate to foster increased intellectual exchange and post-graduate career awareness among URM and non-URM graduate students
o Disseminate Best practices in minority student recruitment and mentoring to provide faculty champions and graduate departments with a 鈥渢oolbox鈥 for inclusive excellence.
o Initiate Inclusive Excellence activities (Distinguished Faculty Seminar Series, faculty and graduate student mentor awards, research mentor training, and others) to improve institutional climate within STEM departments.
