The spring 2020 campus closures due to the COVID-19 pandemic may have posed particular challenges related to the mentorship of science graduate students. In this study, science faculty mentors from one U.S. university report on potential delays to degree completion and their expectations of their mentees during this time. Nearly half of the faculty advisors surveyed expected their graduate student mentees to experience delayed time to graduation. Respondents also described making an effort to support their mentees through providing encouragement and identifying research-related goals students could complete remotely. One-fourth of respondents stated that they were not altering their expectations for their mentees. The respondents who did report having altered expectations varied between altering their immediate expectations and changing their overall expectations for degree completion. These findings relate not only to the immediate impact on graduate mentees, but also to the long-term impacts of COVID-19 on graduate education in the United States.

调整期望:2020年校园关闭对顾问指导研究生方法的影响。

到2020年春季,由于COVID-19大流行而导致的校园关闭可能带来了与理科研究生的指导有关的特殊挑战。在这项研究中,来自一所美国大学的理科导师报告了在此期间学位完成的潜在延误及其对导师的期望。接受调查的教师顾问中,将近有一半期望他们的研究生受训者经历延迟的毕业时间。受访者还描述了通过提供鼓励和确定学生可以远程完成的与研究相关的目标来努力支持他们的学员的努力。四分之一的受访者表示,他们并没有改变对受训者的期望。确实报告过改变了期望的受访者在改变他们的近期期望和改变他们对学位完成的总体期望之间有所不同。这些发现不仅与对研究生受训者的直接影响有关,而且与COVID-19对美国研究生教育的长期影响有关。
