Speed Mentoring

Presented by: Melanie Wolff, Stephanie Alwin, Sterling Wall, Cuiting Li

Networking with professionals in one's field of interest is a valuable experience, but often difficult to initiate. Students can increase their chances of making these connections by attending the Speed Mentoring Session. Attending this session will give an individual an opportunity to network with professionals, while obtaining meaningful feedback on personal presentation and meeting mentors. Students also get the chance to meet and stay connected with peers in the same field; they'll have an opportunity to gain confidence in self-presentation and have the doors opened to the endless possibilities of careers in Family Science.
