AGU offers mentoring opportunities through virtual platforms as well as in-person mentoring at scientific conferences. Students and early career scientists connect with volunteer mentors, who provide support for students and early-career scientists during one-on-one mentoring as well as group mentoring sessions. Learn more about these programs in this Eos article.

AGU Mentoring Network
Transitioning into a permanent position from a doctoral program or a postdoc can be difficult. The goal of the AGU Mentoring Network program is to build professional networks, open opportunities, and reduce obstacles for early career scientists in the Earth and space sciences. Each mentoring network is composed of two senior scientists and six early career scientists. Share your experiences and support fellow burgeoning scientists. Mentor applications are closed for 2018. Mentee applications will open on 26 April 2018. Learn more
Mentoring at Meetings

Career and Research Advice Mentorship sessions
The Career and Research Advice Mentorship (CRAM) sessions allow students and early-career scientists to sign up for 20-minute sessions with CRAM mentors from a range of disciplines and career stages. Learn more
Sharing Science Mentoring Program
Sharing Science will again help connect graduate students with established scientists who are engaged in sharing their science with public audiences. This supports students who are beginning their scientific careers and hoping to find support for engaging in science communication and outreach. Learn more
