Obstacles? Overcome them. Resources? Find them. Partnerships? Build them. Relationships? Strengthen them. You can get it all in the Advancing Women Mentoring Program. As a mentee, we’ll match you with an IUPUI faculty or staff member who can guide you through some of the difficulties you might face in the classroom and the workplace. It’s all about using the resources at your fingertips—those on campus and offered by professionals and peers—to build leadership skills, improve interpersonal relationships, and be the kind of person others turn to in order to get the job done.

When you partner with a faculty or staff mentor, you get a champion in your corner. In your regular meet-ups, you’ll learn more about yourself and identify your strengths and how to use them to your greatest advantage academically, personally, and professionally.

Recognize student leaders

Also in partnership with the Office for Women, we host the annual Women’s Leadership Awards each spring. Women’s Leadership Awards recognize female-identifying students who have had a major impact on the campus or in the community. They embody leadership to the fullest, and we think that should be honored. Nominations for the awards are accepted in February. Nominees do not have to participate in the Advancing Women Mentoring Program. Contact Campus Center and Student Experiences at lead@iupui.edu for more information.
