Professional Mentoring Program

The CSTEM Professional Mentoring Program is designed to engage undergraduate students with STEM industry professionals.                                                            

"Being part of this mentorship program has been an incredibly rewarding experience. It鈥檚 not just about learning, it鈥檚 about the meaningful connections, the open communication, and the valuable advice that has guided me both academically and personally. As a biotechnology student, having a mentor who understands my journey has filled me with confidence, happiness, and a deeper passion for my field. I鈥檇 recommend it to anyone looking for guidance and inspiration to thrive in their goals."                -Mentee, 2024-25
