教师指导是一种持久的博士生教育结构,有助于促进智力成长、职业社会化和逐步独立。然而,我们必须更深刻地理解教授在支持博士生坚持不懈和幸福方面的作用,特别是对于那些在各自领域历来被排斥和边缘化的学生。这项研究通过评估2所研究型大学4个高度多样化的科学、技术、工程和数学博士项目中教师支持的现象学结果,努力实现这样的理解。我发现,整体的教职员工支持有学术、心理社会和社会文化三个维度,这些维度是教职员工通过特定行为来实施的。学生们报告了与教职员工的有意义的经历,通过促进成长心态,验证学生的能力和潜力,以及开启关于学术界种族主义和性别动态的讨论,将斗争和失败正常化。总而言之,这些活动可能会防止学生误解研究生的困难和他们成功的能力。文章讨论了这些发现如何促进未来的高等教育研究和教师专业发展。
Faculty mentoring is a durable structure of doctoral education that facilitates intellectual growth, professional socialization, and progressive independence. We must more deeply understand, however, professors’ role in supporting doctoral students’ persistence and well-being, especially for students from groups who have been historically excluded and marginalized in their fields. This study strived for such understanding by evaluating findings of a phenomenology of faculty support in 4 high-diversity science, technology, engineering, and mathematics PhD programs at 2 research universities. I found that holistic faculty support has academic, psychosocial, and sociocultural dimensions, which faculty enact through specific behaviors. Students reported meaningful experiences with faculty that normalized struggle and failure by promoting a growth mind-set, validating student competence and potential, and opening discussion about racialized and gendered dynamics in academia. Collectively, these activities may prevent students from misconstruing the difficulty of graduate school with their ability to succeed. The article discusses how the findings may advance future higher education research and faculty professional development.
