This book focuses on using faculty mentoring to empower doctoral
students to successfully complete their doctoral studies. The book
is a collection of mentoring chapters showcasing professors and
dissertation advisors from the most prestigious universities in the
United States. They provide an extraordinary range of mentoring
advice that speaks directly to the doctoral student. Each chapter
addresses a professional or personal component of the doctoral
process that represents how these exceptional faculty best mentor
their doctoral students. Faculty contributions exemplify diverse
perspectives of mentoring: (a) Some faculty are direct and
forthright, pointing the mentee toward his/her destination; (b)
some faculty share personal experiences-offering mentoring advice
from the perspective of someone who traveled a similar path; and
(c) some faculty structure a dialogue between the faculty as mentor
and you as the doctoral student. In all cases, they open
possibilities for achieving success in doctoral studies. Students
discover clues to follow during their doctoral journey. Whether the
student is just beginning to think about entering a doctoral
program, presently taking course studies, under stress, and doesn't
know what the future offers, this is an ideal book because it maps
the entire doctoral process.
