Strategi Mentoring Akademik pada Unit Pendidikan Kedokteran dan Ilmu Kesehatan: Systematic Review dan Bibliometric Analysis Untuk Penguatan Universitas Imelda Medan
Year: 2026
Type: review
Study design: Systematic Review
Abstract: Background: Students in health science disciplines face heavy curricular loads and the need to adapt to clinical settings, factors that trigger high stress levels and the risk of burnout. Medical Education Units (MEUs) are responsible not only for instructional aspects but also for student support systems through structured academic mentoring programs. However, institutional implementation is often hindered by the absence of evidence-based modules and a lack of training for faculty mentors. Objective: This study aims to map global research trends regarding academic mentoring in health professional education, synthesize scientific evidence on mentoring effectiveness and models, and formulate recommendations focused on a Faculty Development Program and an Academic Mentoring Operational Module for the MEU at Universitas Imelda Medan (UIM). Methods: This study employs a combined secondary analysis design—specifically Bibliometric Analysis and a Systematic Literature Review (SLR)—adhering to PRISMA 2020 guidelines. Data were extracted from the Scopus, PubMed, and Web of Science databases covering the period 2014–2024. Bibliometric visualization analysis was conducted using VOSviewer to map topic clusters and temporal trends. Methodological quality assessment of the articles was based on the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool (MMAT). The synthesis results were subsequently translated into a specific framework for faculty training and mentoring modules at UIM. Expected Outputs & Implications: The outputs of this study include a bibliometric knowledge map, a synthesis of evidence on mentoring models, and draft documents for a Faculty Development Program (covering empathetic communication, psychological first aid, and role boundaries) and a structured, semester-based Academic Mentoring Operational Module for the UIM MEU, aimed at enhancing internal quality assurance and student well-being
