Overview

The UMSL Mentoring Program seeks to connect alumni and leaders from the community with current students in an effort to help students make better decisions about their career paths, make connections in their chosen career field, and strengthen alumni and student ties to the University of Missouri-St. Louis.

While career contacts may be made through participation in the program, it is not a job-placement service. The program facilitates the exchange of information, development of professional contacts and sharing of experiences and interest. 

See brochure for more information.
