Talent and Development coordinate several schemes on annual cycles.

Teaching, Research, and Academic Mentoring scheme

This scheme is on hold for Academic Year 2023-24. 

All current partnerships will terminate in November 2023. Current participants are welcome to continue their mentoring partnership/s outwith the boundaries of this formalised scheme.

All members of Teaching, Research, and Academic Staff at the University of Dundee, who are looking for a mentoring opportunity (as a mentee, mentor, or both!) are encouraged to join the new Dundee Research and Academic Mentoring scheme, designed to provide structured guidance and support relating to research and teaching career pathways.
