The next programme starts in September 2022. Applications will open this summer.
Applications are processed on a rolling basis, this means first-come, first served.
the Programme
1-on-1 mentor conversations
You will be individually matched with a mentor based on your personal needs and meet with your mentor regularly (once every 3-5 weeks), which can be over tea, during a walk, online or even for dinner depending; on your mentor and your preferences.
Librae Circles and
mentee buddy
You definitely won’t be alone in this programme; you will be together with like-minded individuals who all face their challenges, some of which might resonate with you. That’s why you’ll meet up regularly with your group in a “Librae Circle” and with your mentee buddy to share experiences.
Live events: Kick-off and mentee & mentor dinner
At the beginning of the programme, we will organise a kick-off where you get to meet the other mentees and find your buddy. At the end of the programme, we will host a mentee & mentor dinner. Here you have the opportunity to meet the other mentors and learn from them as well.

This programme is for any student that has a background in or is interested in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics).
