Hi BMES Members,
Mentor/mentee season is upon us and we're ready to start matching! The BMES Mentor/Mentee program pairs underclassmen with upperclassmen to provide mentorship to students during their time in BME.
This year we have two programs you can join: the undergraduate program or the graduate student mentorship. As an underclassman, you can match with an upperclassman mentor to guide you through your first few year. As an upperclassman, you can match with a graduate student mentor to help guide you through your academic development.
