The UMass ADVANCE team is delighted to announce the seven faculty who are the inaugural winners of their College’s Faculty Mentoring Award for 2020, including Angela De Oliveira, Associate Professor of Resource Economics and Chancellor’s Leadership Fellow. Their mentoring ensures that faculty members excel in their careers, and it helps develop a more inclusive environment at the university.
“Despite its importance,” points out Joya Misra, PI of the UMass ADVANCE grant, “faculty mentoring is often invisible or seen as a labor of love.”
