MENTORSHIP PROGRAM

The first couple of years in University can be extremely challenging and confusing. Especially if you don't know anyone in the department to ask questions or help you navigate.

Through UPSA’s Mentorship Program, we hope to foster a sense of community within the department and provide various developmental opportunities for both mentors and mentees!
