The Promentor Programme: An Alumni Mentoring Programme

This programme is exclusive for students on bursaries, and offers an unrivalled opportunity to engage with a range of experienced career professionals in a mentoring context. 

Mentees

Each year, ten first year students are selected to join the programme, following an application process. Eligible students are invited to apply via email, and will complete the process via an application form on CareerConnect.

Mentees on the Promentor Programme will receive: 

• Training so students are ready to fully engage in the programme and are equipped with the tools to do so
• Introductions to three mentors, currently working in their sectors of interest. Introductions take place in Hilary and Trinity Term  
• A £250 payment for each year that the mentee engages with the programme during their undergraduate degree.

Applications are now closed and will reopen in the 2022-23 academic year.
