The University of Northampton has recently launched its first Mentoring Scheme.
The scheme is designed to match a current student with a graduate
who has studied the same course so that the graduate can offer both academic
and professional guidance to the student.
Second and third year students who are interested in signing up to
the scheme would be matched with a graduate who is working in an industry that
the student wishes to pursue a career in.
Getting involved
After registering your interest in the scheme you would be invited
to an informal interview at the University and if successful you would then be
matched to a student and a face-to-face meeting with the student would be
arranged.
We aim to facilitate the student mentor relationship by providing
platforms such as skype, our new online group chat facility and also social networking
sites for interaction.
