The DCU Structured Mentorship Programme runs for six months each academic year between November and April and pairs second-year students with alumni Mentors for the purpose of career and personal development.
It is a joint initiative, co-organised by DCU Alumni and DCU Careers Service.
Alumni and students are matched based on their areas of professional expertise, DCU course and areas of interest. Mentors will have the option of choosing their own Mentee. Alumni Mentors are asked, if possible, to provide their student Mentee with a work-shadowing day as part of the programme.
If you are interested in applying to Mentor in the 2021/22 Structured Mentorship Programme, please fill out the form here.
