Mentor Opportunities
Each mentor program is designed to provide Fisher students with opportunities to both learn from professionals, as well as give back to the Fisher community. All mentoring programs engage and enlighten undergraduate students from the perspective of someone with an understanding of Fisher and with more experience as a business student or working professional.
Mentor Opportunities
Fisher Peer Mentor Program
The Fisher Peer Mentor Program (FPMP) matches first-year students with an upper-level Fisher volunteer mentor. Throughout the academic year, students meet during a kick-off and can participate in monthly events.
Upper-level student mentors participate in a mentor training workshop prior to engaging their mentee.
