Who is a Core Mentor?

MBA Core Mentors are leaders and highly committed students who significantly influence building community at MIT Sloan and serve as resources for first-year Sloanies transitioning to the diverse academic, intellectual, and social culture here. Core Mentors serve as accountability partners through the core experience and help to create an environment where both risk-taking and collaborative ideas are valued methods by which to learn and improve.

How do Core Mentors contribute?

A Core Mentor contributes best as a mentor, liaison, and resource to their first-year students; regarding their career, academic and social priorities and obligations. They regularly check in with individual members and core team(s) to help support overall well-being. Core Mentors receive training and support from staff in the MIT Leadership Center and MBA Program Offices.
