MENTORSHIP

The UWI Mentorship Programme is a unique resource made up of alumni and partners who volunteer to provide career-related information to UWI Cave Hill students. The Office of Student Services is pleased to provide this valuable networking resource to currently enrolled students of degree programmes. The alumni and partners who generously volunteer to provide information do not have job or internship opportunities and it would be improper to send an unsolicited resume to any one listed as a contact in the Programme. The Programme is intended for individual communication of a personal nature and not for commercial purposes.
