The UCSD Health Sciences Faculty Mentor Training Program (FMTP) is
a formal structured mentorship program designed to support the success of
junior faculty, while also improving their sense of satisfaction and engagement
with the institution. FMTP will also enhance senior faculty training in
effective mentoring, facilitate the adoption of a formalized faculty mentor
program within the individual departments/divisions, and cultivate an
environment where mentoring excellence is valued. FMTP is a program developed
by the Office of Faculty Affairs with support
from the Chancellor, the Vice Chancellor for Health Sciences, and the Office of
Equity, Diversity and Inclusion.
The Department of Obstetrics,
Gynecology and Reproductive Sciences is fully committed to the FMTP and
mentoring of the junior faculty. Mentors are assigned to all junior
faculty. Several of our senior faculty have completed the mentoring training
program and many of our junior faculty participate in FMTP activities including
the National Center for Leadership in Academic Medicine (NCLAM) junior faculty
program (NCLAM) and Clinical Research Enhancement though Supplemental Training
(CREST).
