Responsibilities and Expectations
- Faculty mentors, DGS and DBL work in consultation to provide a working support system in order to guide students towards personal and academic success throughout and even after the completion of the Master's in French at the University of Arizona.
- Mentors are available for general consultation and mentorship in addition to the administrative/academic advising that is done by the DGS.
- The DGS remains responsible for the administration, which includes relevant advising, of the graduate program in the department. The DGS meets at least once a semester with each student (at least twice in their first semester).
- Mentors are selected by the students themselves in consultation with the DGS (based on the students’ preferences, interests, and faculty availability).
