Mentoring Programs

The Engineering Faculty has a Mentoring Program to help you make a smooth transition to university life. It's also a good way to make friends and start developing networks.

Meetings with mentors usually run for the first 4 weeks of Semester 1. If you missed the initial uptake during O-Week, you can still find a mentor by contacting the Engineering Student Centre or one of the coordinators below. Flexible First Year students can join in with any School they have an interest in.

We strongly encourage all new engineering students to join the mentoring program and make the most of what it has to offer. Don't leave it until it's too late.
