Mentorship Programs

From professional-led workshops to leadership-building exercises, our Mentorship Seminars Series helps prepare our students for their career journey. The Mentorship Workshop model provides structured support through hybrid (in-person and online) sessions led by industry professionals. These take place in a small-group setting and feature speakers from a variety of industries. This approach maximizes mentor impact, allows for flexible student participation, and fosters meaningful mentor-mentee connections.

We are always open to new ideas for workshops students want to see.
