The U of M seeks mentors to guide college students and post-docs exploring careers in your field! The College of Food, Agricultural and Natural Resource Sciences (CFANS) matches industry professionals with CFANS students and post-docs who are seeking guidance and insight into a career path. Program runs November 2019-May 2020. We ask that mentors and students check in, either in-person, by email, or by phone/Skype at least once a month for an hour, and there is a required half-day job-shadowing component. Local and long-distance mentors are welcome!
Student career interest areas encompass a wide range, which include: Food Science and Nutrition, Animal Science, Plant Science, Agricultural and Food Business & Sales, Forestry, Fisheries and Wildlife, Ag and Environmental Education, and much more.
Mentoring doesn't require a large time commitment and can make an enormous difference in a student's professional growth. Submit your application by September 23, and learn more about the program on the website. Thank you for your consideration! Contact cfansaro@umn.edu with questions.
