IBM-NCSU PATHFINDER MENTORING PROGRAM

Chris Pepper from IBM’s NCSU Pathfinder Mentoring Program stopped by to talk about this great opportunity.

Seems like a great, no pressure opportunity that is a low-key, informal way to network with the “real world”. A perfect chance for students to meet with working professionals in their “domain expertise” and talk about projects, problems and practice.

• Provide students some insight into professional life to better prepare themselves while at school
• Professionals meet with students approx. monthly to discuss career experiences, technical job trends, answer questions, provide insight to engineering profession
• One semester duration – the student and advisor can continue the relationship longer if they choose to
• Potential IBM visits and lab tours to give student a view of what goes on at IBM
• Two-way feedback – hear from student how to improve the program
• For students in Electrical Engineering , Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Mechanical Engineering, Human Factors, Technical Communications, Industrial Design and Graphics Design
