Global Experience Mentoring Program

The Global Experience program is investigating establishing a mentoring program for motivated students who are actively participating in the Global Experience program.

This is a wonderful opportunity for students to be matched with a mentor from industry with whom you can discuss your career plan and gain valuable insights into the workplace.
