As part of the mentoring program, students will have the chance to attend various workshops throughout the academic year. These workshops aim to foster a sense of community among peers and equip students with global skills essential for long-term success. The sessions will cover a range of topics, including self-advocacy, career path exploration, resume building, and identifying and utilizing campus and community resources.
