A qualitative study explored the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of faculty regarding student mentorship at 12 medical colleges of Rajasthan. The study used semi-structured interviews with faculty members. Four key themes emerged: 1. Knowledge of mentorship: Faculty reported limited knowledge on mentorship, regardless of seniority.2. Attitude towards mentorship: Despite the knowledge gap, all faculty demonstrated a positive attitude towards participating in mentoring.3. Practice of mentorship: The level of knowledge influenced the practice of mentorship, highlighting the need for faculty development.4. Improving the mentorship process: Continuous faculty development and peer mentorship were identified as crucial for sustaining the mentorship program. The study highlights the importance of mentorship in health professions education, particularly in Rajasthan. Institutionalized mentorship programs can enhance student learning experiences, but faculty knowledge and attitudes play a significant role in driving the mentorship agenda. The findings suggest that faculty development programs focusing on mentorship are essential to bridge the knowledge gap and promote effective mentoring practices. By fostering a positive attitude towards mentorship and addressing knowledge gaps, institutions can create a supportive environment for student growth and success.
