The USC Dornsife Alumni Mentorship Program’s central mission is to provide Dornsife students with the means to connect with alumni to support career exploration, job shadowing, and networking opportunities.<\/p>\n

Students are matched with alumni for a mentorship period during which they attend events and complete 10 self-selected activities.<\/p>\n

Mentors and mentees choose activities from an Activities menu or they come up with their own activities and schedule them on mutually agreed upon dates.<\/p>\n

Mentors and mentees may meet weekly in person, via phone, or video chat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n <\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
