PROMISE now on Tumblr

The PROMISE Program is now on Tumblr where you can find daily updates with information on research or program funding opportunities, lifehacks, special advice, and anything that might be relevant to someone planning to attend, currently navigating, or preparing to leave graduate school. There's even a page on the blog where you can anonymously submit a question and someone on the PROMISE team will have an answer for you on our 'Ask Anything Thursday' feature.

About PROMISE:

PROMISE: Maryland’s AGEP is a university system-wide effort for the state of Maryland to facilitate underrepresented STEM graduate student and postdoctoral professional development and pathways to careers. UMBC leads the alliance that consists of all 14 colleges, universities, and regional education centers in the University System of Maryland, four community colleges, and a former NSF Model Institution of Excellence Hispanic Serving Institution in Puerto Rico. PROMISE has been a critical catalyst for increasing enrollment, retention, and graduation rates of underrepresented minorities. The program also will contribute to the higher education literature on retention and professional development for graduate students and postdocs. The Rotating Postdoctoral Fellowship and the Professors-in-Training program for Maryland’s institutions (including Master’s serving institutions, HBCUs, community colleges, and an HSI) are among the innovations that respond to AGEP’s call to support the national goal of increasing the number of underrepresented minorities who will enter academic STEM careers.
