A mentor is a bachelor's or master's student who voluntarily makes themselves, their knowledge, and experiences available to their mentee. A mentor-mentee relationsship is based on the mentee's development, and the mentorship can thus cover a variety of topics.
All mentors will receive training in mentoring, so they are well prepared for being your mentor and be focused on your development.
The mentorship program spans a semester. Where and when you should meet is up to you. It could be in a cafeteria or for a walk.
You can sign up for the Mentoring Programme via the link below.
We must receive your registration no later than Wednesday 5th February 2025.
We strive to assign you a mentor with the same educational background as yourself.
If we cannot find you a mentor, we will contact you and talk about other options you may have.
We have a startup-meeting, which is mandatory for both mentors and mentees.
The startup-meeting is you and your mentor's first step towards a good relation. You will be introduced to each other for the first time over a cup of coffee and a piece of cake, and together you will conduct an expectation alignment, where you will discuss what you, as a mentee, would like to gain from the mentorship.
When you participate as a mentor or mentee in the Aarhus BSS mentoring scheme 2025, your personal data will be processed. The purpose is to assess the mentoring scheme's effect on student retention. You can read more about Aarhus University's processing of your personal data here.
