Abstract
INTRODUCTION
Mentoring programs are the most important factor in the achievement of students' human capital. However, in Iran's higher health education system, these initiatives have received less attention. The goal of this research is to reorganize the components of mentoring for medical university student achievement.
METHODS
This qualitative study was conducted using a Meta synthesis method. Keywords of mentoring medical students, mentoring academics students, human capital development, student development, and mentoring were searched in database: Science Direct, Springer, Wiley Online Library, ERIC, Sage, Emerald, Pub Med from 2000 to 2021. Out of total 91 studies, finally 51 studies were selected.
RESULTS
The findings are divided into two parts. The first part deals with the characteristics of faculty members and students in the mentoring programs of medical universities. These features include student-specific characteristics, faculty-specific characteristics and common characteristics. In the second part of findings, the components of mentoring programs were extracted. These components include university, communication, soft capacities; before the implementation of the program, during program implementation, monitoring and evaluation of program implementation, and consequences of program implementation.
CONCLUSION
The suggested components should be examined by managers of the higher health education system for student human capital development due to the relevance of mentoring programs in the development of medical students' human capital.
