The Victorian Popular Fiction Association (VPFA) Mentorship Scheme connects established researchers with scholars at any stage working in Victorian popular fiction and related fields. Through supportive, one-to-one or group mentoring, the scheme aims to help researchers develop their scholarly careers, build professional networks, and feel part of a wider community, while strengthening connections across the VPFA.
Whether you are just starting your PGR studies, approaching the end of your PhD, beginning a postdoctoral position, establishing yourself as an early-career academic or as an independent scholar, at the mid-to-late career stage, or looking to share your experience with the next generation of scholars, the scheme offers an opportunity to learn, connect and grow.
