Frequently Asked Questions (for Students)

Mentorship Programme is a one-year programme that begins every November. It is structured as a one-to-one/ one-to-two partnership between the mentor (alumni of HKSYU) and the mentee (current undergraduate student of HKSYU).

It facilitates mentees’ educational, social, and personal growth through the Mentorship Programme. Additionally, it provides students with the opportunity to broaden their horizons through interactions with experienced professionals and senior executives, fostering stronger interpersonal communication skills.

Under the Mentorship Programme, the mentee will participate in a variety of activities, including individual meetings with the mentor and alumni sharing sessions. Additionally, the OSA will organize supplementary activities for students to strengthen the mentor-mentee relationship.

Undergraduate students from Year 1 to 4 in any discipline are welcome to join the programme.

There are certain duties and responsibilities that come with the privilege of being a mentee. For example, mentees are expected to attend the opening ceremony, various activities (such as career workshops and sharing sessions organized by the OSA or arranged by the mentors), and submit a programme survey at the end of the programme.

Mentorship Programme does not offer placement services. Through the Mentorship Programme, you can learn from mentors’ valuable experiences, identify career interests and goals, and build social networks for future development.

All mentors are alumni of HKSYU who are senior executives/managers with at least 5 years of work experience in various businesses or industries.

Mentees also maintain connections with their mentors even after completing the programme.
