Global Mentoring Program

The 国产三级片Community Grows Stronger when we help and support one another.听听

The Global Mentoring Program connects alumni and current students for holistic and career-based mentoring relationships. This program provides an opportunity to connect and network within the alumni community, while serving as a valuable resource for students and alumni alike as they navigate their path during and after AUP, career options, explore new industries, or consider further education options.听

Both alumni and students, including graduate, undergraduate and visiting students, can participate as mentees. Alumni mentors advise and guide mentees in setting and achieving academic, personal, and professional goals, offering insights and support. Alumni may serve as mentors and/or seek mentorship from fellow alumni.听听听

Thanks to my mentor, I was able to better grasp life beyond 国产三级片鈥 beyond school in general 鈥 and instead start to really think about ways to better prepare myself for the professional world.

I mentor because I feel passionate about sharing my knowledge, my perspective and my understanding of the world, and feel fortunate to be part of the 国产三级片family.
