What is Mix & Match

Speed Mentoring

If you have heard of speed dating you are on the right track. Instead of meeting a future soul mate, you will be meeting potential mentors/mentees. Alumni are a valuable resource for students who are on the path of developing their future careers.

Following a 30 minute overview, alumni will meet with students in their area of expertise/major. Each session will be 10 minutes long and will allow for alumni and students to meet one-on-one, ask questions, discuss professional strengths and challenges, review work or simply introduce each other and talk. At the end of the 10 minutes a bell will ring and the student will move on to another alumni and repeat the process.
