International mentors available to help you make things happen by Amanda (International) A great way to get your career moving in the right direction is to get a mentor. Our mentoring programme puts you in touch with someone for a 6 month period who you can ask questions of, talk to about your career decisions and plans or use for inspiration. They may be working in a career area of that you are interested in / may have had similar experiences to you or they may just be someone inspirational and passionate about helping others. It is popular with our international students and can help you to manage your expectations, seek opportunities and make things happen.   Our international students can apply for a UK based mentor, but there are also mentors available now working across the world many are our international alumni who have studied in the UK and then moved home   / internationally.  They can be invaluable if you are looking to return home or explore working in another country after graduation.
