This qualitative case study contributed to the existing body of knowledge by examining the empowering effect of faculty mentorship on the research skill development of MAEd students. The professor-mentorship provided to MAEd students played a vital role in developing their research skills. Throughout the research process, professor-mentors guided and supported students, enhancing their abilities in selecting research topics, conducting literature reviews, designing methodologies, and analyzing data. The mentorship improved methodological rigor and fostered critical thinking, analytical skills, and a deeper comprehension of the research process. Feedback and support from mentors were instrumental in refining students' research proposals, writing, and presentations. Professor-mentors encouraged students to share their research findings through conferences and publications, providing valuable growth opportunities. This exposure boosted students' research skills and bolstered their confidence as researchers. Overall, professor mentors' mentorship significantly shaped the research skills and career paths of MAEd students, instilling a passion for evidence-based practices in education and preparing them for future research endeavors.
