The Undergraduate Research Hub Mentor Award

Honorees are selected from the nominations based on a combination of factors, including student testimonials, innovative or unusual mentoring practices, and other considerations, such as mentees served and years of service as a mentor to undergraduates. Students from the TRELS, McNair, and Faculty Mentor Programs are sent information on how to nominate their mentors for the award. | Previous Outstanding Mentor Award winners.
