Mentoring and Well-Being in Higher Education

Abstract

There has been an explosion of research on the well-being of university students and faculty across a diverse set of disciplines across higher education. The symposium provides a brief review connecting the scholarship of mentorship with growing research on well-being in academia. Specifically, the current paper focuses on well-being outcomes for both mentors and mentees, considering undergraduates, graduates, and faculty, and concludes by discussing various avenues for further research.
