Program Details

Description

CONNECT allows you to create relationships with professionals prior to graduation to better prepare for an internship or a first job experience. You will work on your professional skills and marketability.  You will receive one-on-one mentoring, but you will also be able to work on some skills on your own as you prepare for the meetings with your mentor. 

Timeline

This program typically is completed in a semester.  However, you and your mentor may decide to continue your relationship after the program ends if it suits you.

Benefits

You will be able to explore career opportunities, develop communication skills and other soft skills, perfect your resume, LinkedIn profile, and elevator pitch, gain a deeper understanding of the interview process, and start building your professional network.

Expectations

You are expected to commit to the duration of the program, engage in regular communication with your mentor, come prepared to your meetings whether they are in-person or virtual meetings, ask questions, and act in a professional manner.
