Abstract:
PhD programs have long struggled to recruit and retain trainees and scholars representative of an increasingly diverse U.S. population. In this practice brief, we describe barriers facing marginalized students in pursuing a PhD and offer recommendations for institutions aiming to provide equitable opportunities across the doctoral training pipeline. Recommendations are informed by the burgeoning success of a graduate student-led mentorship program that offers prospective underrepresented PhD students support in the application process and beyond. We highlight the importance of incentivizing the efforts and assets of graduate student mentors in cultivating and sustaining strong peer-to-peer support networks necessary to ensure the success of the next generation of diverse scholars.
