Emerging Scholars Institute (Mentoring Program)

The Emerging Scholars Institute (E.S.I.) is designed to address the needs of our multicultural student population by paying attention specifically to their transitional experience from high school to college and provide students the help they need to gain and master the proper academic and leadership skills required for their chosen field as well as reflect the characteristics of a Murray State University graduate.

The first phrase of the E.S.I. program is Connected which is peer mentoring program for incoming freshmen at the beginning of the fall semester. Mentors and Tutors are provided to assist you in your transition from high school to college. 

For second and third year students, the Emerging Scholars Institute “On-Track” provides a structured retention focused phrase that emphasizes self-help which focuses on academic success and community service

And the final component of the E.S.I. program – Find the Leader in You (FLY) program assists third and fourth year students with the appropriate preparation for finding internships, job placement, graduate school or professional school selection. Top students are selected and matched up with an Alumni Mentor in their chosen academic field.
