SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:MORE Committee Workshop (STUDENT): Getting Your Mentoring Relationship Off to a Good Start
DESCRIPTION:Developed by the MORE Committee\, this workshop helps enhance the mentoring relationship between the student and faculty mentor by facilitating the development of shared expectations. Mentors and mentees work independently in separate sessions to identify their own objectives and styles\, and consider strategies for dealing with possible challenges. Then\, student-faculty pairs work together to develop a written mentoring plan as a means of codifying some of the most important elements (needs\, goals\, mutual expectations) of a two-way mentoring relationship. Among Rackham doctoral students who have written mentoring plans\, 83 percent find those plans useful. Registration and attendance at the same workshop are required of both the faculty and the student. Separate registration for faculty is available at: https://myumi.ch/2r6kn.

SUMMARY:Other:Michigan Robotics Hackathon
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the 2026 Inspired4Robotics Hackathon\, happening on May 7th and 8th! We’re celebrating the opening of the Robot Garage\, a library of free-to-use robots and robotics components\, by holding this hackathon!\n\nStarting at 10am on Thursday\, May 7th\, your goal is to build a prototype to pitch an idea for a product\, demonstration\, or even a research direction! Along with all the resources and components in the Robot Garage\, we will provide technical support\, access to a makerspace\, and mentorship to help you get started. The top three teams win cash prizes to fund their future work. And all teams have the opportunity to apply for mini-grants to continue their work using the space\, and fund their project. A panel of judges will select the group of winners based on a final presentation. Participants get bonus points if their project can double as a demonstration of a concept in STEM\, and be adapted by the department for future outreach and educational events! We’re looking for inspired explorations that showcase the interdisciplinary nature of robotics.
