Marketing EDGE First-Gen Virtual Mentoring Program

Marketing EDGE First-Gen Initiatives support students who are the first in their families to attend college. Many first-gen students do not have access to the same level of professional development as traditional students. First-gen focused programs provide the environment, advice and resources they need to pursue their career interest in marketing and advertising. First-gen programs also help to build an inclusive entry-level marketing talent pool that more accurately reflects the increasing diversity on campus.
Program Structure:
This program takes place for 8 weeks over the course of a semester.  The next program is scheduled for spring 2021, February 16 – April 9, 2021
Mentees will:
Meet virtually at least 5 times during the program
Be provided with supporting resources, such as a mentee guide, and on-line learnings
Attend a virtual orientation session
Be invited to a variety of marketing events throughout the program for networking and industry information
Application closes December 31, 2020.
