Kickoff meeting on the week of 2/20 by invitation!
Program Description:
This mentorship program exists to connect undergraduate women students to one of MIT’s most valuable resources, its graduate women student community, which include master's, doctoral, post-doc, MBAs, and Sloan students. Pairs will be able to meet informally and discuss whatever they want! From academics and MIT to what comes after school to relationships to professional development to leading with integrity. This program seeks to match undergrads and grads on mutual interests – both academic and extracurricular – in the hopes of facilitating the growth of a fun, informative, and supportive relationship.
Participants will be expected to attend the program Kick-off during the week of February 20th and meet with their mentor/mentee pair at least three times. A closing celebration reception will also occur in late April. This is a pilot program, and we will do our best to pair as many people as possible!
