Student-Alumni Mentoring Program (StAMP)

Welcome to the College of Humanities, Arts & Social Sciences’ (HASS) Student-Alumni Mentoring Program (StAMP).

StAMP connects final year students with Flinders alumni who have relevant industry experience and are willing to share their advice, knowledge and experiences – preparing students for their chosen career.

Mentors will enjoy the opportunity to help increase a student’s confidence and knowledge as well as developing their leadership and communication skills.

Mentees will benefit from the support and advice of experienced alumni in developing an understanding of the culture, opportunities and challenges of their intended profession.

Benefits of Mentoring

Mentoring can be a very rewarding experience. It helps individuals achieve their personal aspirations and goals in the workplace and aids in attaining a state of well-being. Mentoring can provide clear benefits to both mentee and mentor.

As a mentor you will be:

developing your interpersonal skills
contributing to the future of your sector/industry
growing and developing as a professional
enjoying a sense of purpose by giving to others.

Our student mentees will be:

accessing impartial advice and encouragement from a sector/industry role model
supported in their transition from studying to the workplace
developing their pre-professional identity
improving self-confidence and interpersonal skills
identifying areas for professional growth, goal setting
building professional networks.

Meet the mentors

We are incredibly proud of the mentors who have volunteered to be involved in our StAMP mentoring program. The mentors are all Flinders University graduates who were once in the very position the student is currently in – on the cusp of leaving Flinders and launching their career. They are ready to impart their wealth of knowledge and experience to help students achieve their study and future career goals.
