Inspire and be inspired by our students

Finding your way after university can be a challenge. No matter if you’re looking for the right job, setting up your own business or considering opportunities for further education.

Our Mentor Match programme brings together talented and motivated students with carefully selected alumni and friends. Mentors who can provide the advice, challenge and insight to help our students take those first important steps after University with confidence and enthusiasm.

Mentoring can take place physically or digitally - you decide.

It’s a fun and rewarding experience for everyone involved, and helps strengthen our success in student employability. And this of course is great for our students and their employers. Whatsmore, it helps build the reputation of our University and all those associated with it, such as our supporters, researchers and students – past, present and future.

Are you curious about what it's like to take part? To get an idea, you can read (in Swedish) about the experience of two previous pairs - Ida and Anna, as well as Kristina and Maria.

We are currently welcoming applications for the 2024/2025 programme that will begin in mid-October 2024 and end in April 2025.

Register today on our online mentoring portal - www.orucommunity.se!

The last date to apply is Monday 14th October. The University then makes matches and if we're able to match you with a mentoring partner we'll get in touch by email with all the details you'll need to get started!

Thanks for your interest in taking part!
