Undergraduate Mentoring Award

In recognition of the many hours our faculty fellows offer to undergraduate students who participate in our programs, the Kellogg Institute has established the Undergraduate Mentoring Award to be presented for the first time this May. The honor, carrying a cash prize of $750, will recognize one faculty fellow each year for excellence in mentoring undergraduate student research. It will be awarded annually at Kellogg’s commencement award ceremony.

The exceptional mentoring of the Institute’s faculty fellows is a vital component of several of Kellogg’s programs, including the International Scholars, Latin American Studies and Research Grants programs.
