The Alumni Student Mentorship Program is opening Applications for a new Cohort

RIT Croatia is opening applications for a new round of the Alumni Student Mentorship program and encourages all interested Alumni to apply!

This year’s cohort will be launched at the beginning of October 2023 and will run until the end of December 2023. Same as in previous years, through this program, RIT Croatia will pair up alumni and students with similar areas of interest, so students can have a support system, receive career guidance, and an the opportunity to make professional contacts. This program will be tailor-made for each individual pair. 

WHY PARTICIPATE & WHAT’S IN IT FOR YOU?

This particular program has multiple benefits for both parties involved. Successful Alumni have the power to inspire, motivate, and support RIT Croatia students. Their knowledge, expertise, and insight will help students maximize their RIT Croatia experience and open their eyes to the opportunities and challenges they will face upon graduation. On the other hand, this is also a learning opportunity for our Alumni, as they will receive a new and fresh perspective from the student’s end, find needed support within certain topics, and gain direct insights into recruitment possibilities.
