The College of Business Mentoring Program connects business students to mentors who are successful alumni and friends of the college. Mentors provide students with guidance and support to help them successfully transition into professional roles in the workforce.
This student-driven program puts the student in charge. Students will request a match with a mentor whose background aligns with their goals, then decide if it’s the right fit. Together, mentors and mentees will build a professional relationship through virtual meetings that focus on career advice, networking, and balancing work and life.
Once paired, mentors and mentees are asked to connect for at least 30 minutes weekly via phone, email, or zoom throughout the academic year. Suggested topics of discussion are outlined in our Milestones which can then be checked off when discussed. Each topic focuses on professional skills including networking, work-life balance, and career prep.
