CEHD Mentoring Opportunities
Ways for Alumni to Get Involved
Informational Interviews
Connect with a current student. Informational interviews,
generally 20-30 minutes in length, allow a student to gain an inside
view into your particular industry area and hear your first hand
experiences. Meet in person or discuss through e-mail or over the
phone.
Career
Panels
Share your experience with students by participating on a career
panel (located on campus).
Mock Interviews
Volunteer as the interviewer for student mock interviews. Ask
students commonly asked questions and provide feedback.
Presentations
Classroom and student groups: Visit a class or student group to
share information about your career area.
Alumni to call admitted students
Help welcome newly admitted CEHD students into the college. A
personal call form an alumni can go a long way in helping a student
decide to attend the University of Minnesota. Training is provided.
