Learning from Our Peers: Mentorship at the 天美传媒 Summer Studio

As part of the Summer Studio in Classical Architecture, students are paired with an emerging professional mentor. The mentorship program strives to help students gain a better sense of the professional world outside of the classroom through information sharing, phone calls, meet-ups, and events with their professional mentors. Mentees are typically matched up with a mentor who shares common experiences and professional goals with the mentee. The pair are encouraged to keep in touch over the course of an academic year, and beyond, as the mentee graduates and starts their job search.
