Making the Most of Your Network: How to Form Connections with Alumni and Start an Alumni Mentorship Program

As college students, we are often told that our years in school are essential to building our network. But how can you form these valuable connections and how far could your network extend? This workshop will go beyond connecting with your classmates and professors and delve into the world of alumni networking. Many schools maintain sums of alumni who are waiting to help their alma mater, but they are often an untapped resource for students. Northeastern University AIChE has created a unique alumni mentorship program that pairs students with an alumni mentor based on similar interests and career goals. We will teach you how to establish meaningful connections with alumni, solicit a potential alumni mentor, and start an AIChE chapter alumni mentorship program. We will also go further into how to maintain these connections and discuss all the benefits your university alumni have to offer. Please join us for this essential, interactive workshop in order to make the most of your network.
