Mentor Me … has been launched!
I am delighted to announce that we
are now ready to accept applications for the new Manchester Metropolitan
Mentoring programme. Please see full details below ...
Mentor Me provides students with the opportunity to
benefit from contact with a working professional who will act as their mentor.
Students will have a valuable opportunity to gain an insight into the world of
work, learning from the experience and knowledge of a mentor.
Our mentors can also help students to
consider their career options and the steps required to achieve their career
goals.
Graduate outcomes form an important
part of the proposed TEF. Social mobility remains a government priority and as
a leading university, we aim to evidence more clearly the positive impact that
we have in respect of supporting widening participation. Raising aspirations,
improving student confidence and graduate resilience can also be supported by
improved access to mentoring opportunities as part of a managed programme
within the University. It also provides a platform to build upon relationship
that we have with alumni and employers.
As part of piloting this programme,
we would like to invite students who are currently in their first
year and studying Accounting, Finance and Economics to apply for a
mentor. Applications will need to be submitted online between
1 April and 30 June 2017. Successful students will be notified
by the end of September and will then be mentored from October 2017 to May
2018.
