AlumniMentors

  • We do not have the words to thank our mentors well enough for their support over the years!
  • Are you interested in serving as an alumni mentor for the CSC324/326 courses?

We would love to hear from you! Kindly reach out to any of the instructors. What does being a mentor for CSC324/326 look like?

  1. You will get acquainted with resources containing leadership and confidentiality descriptions provided by Alumni & Donor Relations.
  2. Usually, alumni mentors help students craft a project in the second half of the semester.
  3. In the first half of the semester, we update mentors with the available projects and ask who would be willing to help.
  4. Once we match students and mentors, students should reach out to their mentors at least three times during the semester to ask for guidance/feedback on their product.
  5. Mentors take a different approach: some are more hands-on, whereas others prefer a more holistic approach (such as asking students questions to help them figure out solutions to their issues/problems by themselves) – both approaches are totally fine.
  6. At the end of the semester, we send mentors a survey to evaluate the students’ professionalism with their mentors.
