Dear colleague,<\/p>\n
The PROMISE internship program invites you to apply to be a mentor for a 2017 summer intern.<\/p>\n
Mentors serve as guides by facilitating learning and providing direction for the PROMISE intern. The mentor-mentee relationship helps to build rapport, trust, and shared power allowing the team to co-create a robust, transformative learning, eight-week summer experience from June 26 – August 18, 2017.<\/p>\n
The PROMISE program has undergone several revisions throughout the last year to better fit the needs of mentors and students while providing a valuable experience. Review new 2017 changes to the program<\/a>. These revisions include changes to the application process and timeline, as well as emphasis on forming mentoring relationships that guide students in their personal development and professional growth.<\/p>\n More information about becoming a mentor can be found on the PROMISE program mentor page:\u00a0 dce.oregonstate.edu\/promise\/mentor<\/a>. The mentor application<\/a> is due Tuesday, March 7 at 4:00pm.<\/p>\n The student application process will follow during April and requires mentor participation in presenting potential projects, meeting with students to discuss projects, and signing mentor approval forms for student applications.<\/p>\n PROMISE internships are important for OSU and Oregon communities because many PROMISE alumni become leaders in Oregon and beyond. This is also a powerful way we continue to build OSU\u2019s great community and network of professionals. Many of our previous mentors have developed long-term working relationships with their interns, and even continued interns on for hire post-internship.<\/p>\n PROMISE is administered and supported by Diversity & Cultural Engagement within the Division of Student Affairs.
