Application for Students

WiSE Mentoring Program

Okanagan Campus

University of British Columbia

Please complete the application form below. The information you provide will assist us in matching you with a mentor. Note that while we try to match mentors and mentees around general career interests, this is not always possible. However, we feel that industry mentors are able to provide students with valuable information and feedback regarding professional skills even if they are from other disciplines.

Application for Students 2023-24
