How To’s
Bringing together students and mentors for career mentorship.
The goal is to provide mentees with a supportive network that they can depend upon to seek guidance, develop professional skills, and receive recommendations that will prepare them for the future. Mentorship offers many opportunities — to promote career and scholarly success, help in career exploration, and build important, lasting relationships with others. This program is designed to last at least 6 months, although the relationships formed could last well into the future.
Mentoring consists of a long-term relationship focused on supporting the growth and development of the mentee.
Your mentor is here to support you in your academic and professional development. This may be the first time you’ve had a mentor for many of you. Not to fear! This guide will serve as an introduction; so you know what to expect and how to get the most out of your mentorship.
Although there is no rulebook for mentoring, certain guidelines will build successful mentoring relationships. Here are some general reminders for participants.
