MEM Peer Mentoring Program

This program helps support new students with personalised advice to connect them with study and engagement opportunities at the University and the Master of Engineering Management.

Running twice a year, the program invites current 2nd Semester students and recent graduates to become peer mentors. By mentoring a group of new MEM students, you’ll share valuable insights about the degree and the university to create a supportive environment.

To ensure effective mentoring, mentors and mentees undergo online training covering the basics of mentorship.
