Interested in mentoring a current student?
Having the guidance of a seasoned professional in a given field can be invaluable to college students and their success in the workplace. To that end, the CBU Career Center and the Alumni Office work closely together to provide a mentoring program for our students. All majors and class levels are invited to participate in the program. Students are able to work closely with CBU graduates who have been successful in their chosen career fields. Mentors work with students in a variety of ways, including shadow opportunities, offering career advice, and detailing job search strategies specific to that career field.
If you are interested in becoming a part of the mentor program, please contact us at alumni@cbu.edu for more information.
