Professional Mentoring Program

The College of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (CSTEM) is proud to announce the launch of a mentoring program designed to engage undergraduate students with STEM industry professionals. 

Benefits of Mentorship

Get Involved

• Are you going to be a junior in the fall and are interested in being paired with an industry professional?
• Have you completed your lower-division coursework for the major? This can be done by reviewing your Degree Planner or using a Major/Minor Worksheet.
• Do you have a resume, unofficial transcript, and a LinkedIn account prepared? Stay tuned for workshops to help you with these tools!

If so, you are now ready for a professional mentorship!

Expectations

• Attend Kick-Off Reception in September
• Meet with mentor/mentee at least once per month October-March
• Attend Wrap-up in April

Receive Mentorship 

Mentees will be matched with a working professional and decide together on when and where to meet for at least 1-2 hours a month. It will be your responsibility to coordinate meetings with your mentor.  

Become a Mentor

Mentors will be matched with a student whose educational or professional interests align with their own and will decide together on when and where to meet for at least 1-2 hours a month.
