Get connected at Monash!

IT Undergraduate Peer Mentoring
 

 
   

 Mentee applications Open 

 
 

From the moment first-year undergraduate students arrive on campus, they'll have the opportunity to connect with peer mentors who will guide and support them through their first semester at Monash.

Mentees will kick off university in a fun and supportive environment, building connections with their mentors, peers and faculties.

Mentors are students in their second year or above. They guide new students through their first year, sharing their knowledge and insights into the Monash experience. Mentors can attend professional development events, network with other student mentors and elevate their employability skills.

Peer mentoring is run in small groups. One-on-one mentoring is also available to eligible students.
