Mentorship

Mentorship revolves around helping incoming freshman navigate their way through Purdue CS/DS in their first semester. This program pairs upperclassmen and incoming freshman in a group setting with 4-5 mentees per mentor. Mentors can be used to ask any advice regarding Purdue CS on a need-basis, making this program low commitment but high impact for both parties.

For Mentees

Are you an incoming or current freshman looking for guidance? Apply to be paired with an upperclassman mentor who can help you navigate your first semester at Purdue.
