The American Meteorological Society has a mentorship program that is currently seeking a limited number of upper-level undergraduate and graduate students who are focused on building a career in the private sector. This program is uniquely focused on skill development, coaching, and helping students grow professional network and business acumen. This year at the AMS 2019 Annual Meeting in Phoenix, AZ, we had a record number of students express interest in our mentorship program during the student conference career fair. The word has gotten around about the success of our program and we are seeking to expand both our student and professional network.
In order to ensure that students have an opportunity to build a strong working relationship during the 2019 calendar year, we request that applications be submitted by January 31, 2019. Special considerations may apply to late applicants, but it is entirely dependent on the availability of mentors. We make every attempt to provide one mentor per student applicant. We appreciate your help and look forward to seeing lots of students sign up!
