SWE Pacific Northwest professional section will be partnering with the SWE student sections at the University of Washington, Seattle University, and Everett CC in a structured mentoring program, and we want you to be a part of the program. It is a short time commitment, but a very valuable experience for the students. If you are interested in being a mentor, please see below for details of the program!
Who:
Experienced engineers of any discipline. Each interested mentor will complete the short bio/experience questionnaire found here: http://goo.gl/forms/A4oRiim1Gx
Please submit questionnaire by December 4th. We will need enough mentors as there are students signed up to the program and it will be first come first serve for mentors. Please help spread the word!
What:
A structured, on-going mentorship with an experienced engineer so engineering students can gain access to professionals’ experiences. We would love to have SWE members as mentors, but it is not a criteria.
When:
The program will meet with everyone 4 times over the course of the academic year. The first meeting will include a speaker to discuss mentoring. It will also be a chance to network and meet your potential mentor/mentee (similar to speed mentoring).
We will pair mentor and mentees based on preference questionnaires submitted after the first meeting. The mentor and mentee will then schedule meetings on their own (over the phone, over a cup of coffee, etc.) to engage in a mentoring relationship.
The kick-off/pairing meeting will be Monday, December 7th at 6:00PM (location details to follow). You must attend in order to participate in the program.
Future Dates for Group Mentoring Meetings:
March 1st
May 18th
Note: All meetings include dinner. Please save the dates now.
