Mentoring Undergraduates Program

The Mentoring Undergraduates Program (MentorUP) in the Chemistry Department provides a mentorship network for incoming undergraduate students to assist them as they transition to life at NC State. MentorUp consists of small groups who meet several times over the course of a semester with graduate and upperclass undergraduate mentors. Mentors will engage with, and share resources and advice to incoming undergraduates in order to increase the retention of students in the field]. Through mentorship meetings and events, MentorUP hopes to foster long-lasting relationships between undergraduates and graduate students, and to increase the number of students who go on to pursue careers in chemistry.
