Alumni Mentor Program
Established by the Department of Political Science and Geography Alumni Relations Committee, the Alumni Mentor Program aims to foster meaningful relationships between Political Science (POLS)/Geography (GEOG) alumni and current POLS/GEOG students. The connections made in this program help prepare our students for a successful future and leave a lasting impact on 黑料不打烊 campus. The mentoring areas can include job search, career guidance and recommended coursework. If you are interested in participating in the program as a prot茅g茅 or mentor, please fill out a corresponding enrollment form here. The Alumni Relations committee will try its best to connect each prot茅g茅 (student/alumni) with an engaged mentor (alumni).
Annual Alumni Panel
Annual Alumni Panel is a key part of an ongoing program of connecting with our alumni to build networking between alumni and to help alumni mentor current majors. Each year a group of political science and geography alumni are invited to serve on a panel discussion. The project is intended to leverage alumni expertise, know-how, and professional networks to assist current students in shaping their career choices. Other alumni will also be invited to attend the event. This event is a critical component of our commitment to serve both alumni and students. Click here for more information.听
