RE:[tips] Research mentoring compensation

Mentoring independent research is what we do - an explicit expectations of our 
employment. So I wouldn't say we do it for free any more than we do all the 
other things we do for free: service on committees, publish papers, give talks, 
attend conferences, teach, write letters of recommendation, etc. etc. It is 
just part of the job.

We get $100 a semester for independent-study sorts of things -- when times are 
good.  Right now in this belt-tightened world we're in, we do them for free...

We do have a course on the books that we generally offer yearly (depending on 
the crop of students we get) in which students do individual research, but it's 
for our better students.

Does your institution offer compensation for mentoring independent 
research/study students?

If so, how?

Most of our faculty carry several students a year pro-bono but we are about 
used up and want to know what other institutions. I tried to google this but 
it's not something that generally appears on websites.

RE:[tips] Research mentoring compensation

2010-05-14 Thread Annette Taylor
Which is why I like the word pro bono--for the common good.

When students have a project they get their teeth into it's very rewarding; 
other times it's a drag because some are doing it because they see it as a plus 
mark on their grad school application--a hoop to jump through but they could 
care less about the hoop.

But all in all, it's rewarding work on the balance side, even if draining; and 
even if the students never go on in school past their BA they have an insight 
into the process that they could not otherwise have received; and, if they do 
go on, they are a leg up on those who have not participated in the process, or 
who only did grunt work but got on a pub author list.

However, this year I mentored 9 students; 7 for both semesters. I am so 
drained. It would be nice to have some compensation (I prefer accumulating 
units towards reassigned time) and recognition of how hard the work is. All of 
our honors students must have an official mentoring relationship and they pay 
tuition for those units. In a private school where the students are paying 
tuition for those units it seems to me the university is using us in a big way. 
I provided, over the academic year, 16 students times various amounts of units 
(not all took 3 units) worth of tuition income for the university. I would love 
to eventually have it accumulate towards reassigned time--when I can devote 
myself to research a bit more, with more student research assistants :)

Re: [tips] Research mentoring compensation

2010-05-13 Thread Ken Steele


We have a merit-point system at ASU for various activities. A 
faculty member would receive some number of merit points for 
mentoring an independent study student, additional merit-points 
if the student is a co-author on a conference presentation, 
further additional merit points if the student is a co-author on 
a publication.


At the end of the year, the chairperson takes whatever additional 
salary money we get from the College of Arts  Sciences and 
spreads it among the faculty proportionally according to merit 
points.


The merit point count is a running 3-year average to smooth out 
counts for variations in state funding year-to-year and to reward 
long-term contributions.


Go here to find our current merit point document:

http://www.psych.appstate.edu/faculty/forms.html

The chairperson has the final say on the classification of merit.

Our mentoring or teaching of students as independent study students is totally 
pro bono. In fact, on official records, all independent study students are 
listed as taught by the department head.

Dear Tipsters,

We have supervised this kind of work pro bono. 

In our latest Collective Agreement, we can accumulate points for doing this and 
after a few years can have a course relief.
