2021 OSDI Next Generation Mentorship Program: Mentee Application
Interested in being a Next Generation Mentor Program (NGMP) Mentee for Spring Quarter 2021? Apply here!

Our goal for NGMP mentees is to deepen their undergraduate experience, explore a variety of career paths, and be supported in their academic and student success by the insights, assistance and encouragement of our amazing CoE graduate student mentors. You will also be able to receive 1 credit for being a part of this mentorship program - we hope that provides a meaningful structure to ensure you have a fruitful experience!

Please fill out this short application below to aid the OSDI staff in reviewing your application. This will guide how we determine mentor/mentee pairs. We intend to assign mentor/mentee pairs based on the information you both provide and how important it is to you that your mentor "match" your interests. Applications will be reviewed by Week 9 of Winter Quarter and pairings will be confirmed before Finals Week. Please check your email regularly during this time.
