Career
Mentor Program
The Career Mentor Program allows 20 junior students, to be paired with a USI graduate in
their field of interest. Students are selected and interviewed late in
November through early December. Once selected, a committee will match
the student with a graduate in the student's field of study. The
mentoring program will run from February through April. Activities may
include job shadowing, introductions to others in a career field, resume
assistance, mock interviews, and any other objectives/goals determined by
you and your mentor.

Day on the
Job
This program provides freshman and sophomore students a chance to experience what really happens
from 9 to 5. Students choose their particular field of interest, then spend
the day with a USI graduate observing the daily work routine. This match
takes place during the spring semester. It's a great
way to gain valuable career information, expand career networks, and develop
confidence. The Office of Alumni and Volunteer Services maintains a list of
alumni participating in the program and has the application forms for
students. Click here to apply!
