Please join our IBM guests for this fantastic IN-PERSON (David Clark Labs, room 101) information gathering session which is a unique opportunity for students interested in obtaining a professional mentor.  IBM has run this mentoring program with NC State University for 20 years and it gets bigger and better every year.  IBMers are paired with NC State students in the same discipline for 1×1 mentorship.  Additionally, IBM provides optional group events to spark conversation and give you some ideas on how to apply your degree towards a career.

The information session is offered in August, IBM collects applications and matches students to a mentor in September.  They kick off the program with a “Meet Your Mentor” event at  the end of September.  Learn more about the program and how you can participate during this August 26th event.
