Unit 191 Mentoring Program

The 2025-2026 Mentoring Program starts in September 2025.  For a description of the Mentoring Program, Click Here.  There will be two tiers of mentees.  Tier I is for mentees who have fewer than 250 masterpoints and mentors who have fewer than 500, with possibly a few exceptions approved by the Mentoring Committee.  Tier II is for everyone else.  If you want to be a Tier II mentee and have fewer than 500 masterpoints, you will receive priority for getting a Tier II mentor if you also agree to be a Tier I mentor.  To sign up as either a mentee or mentor or with questions about the program, please email Michael Lavine at mlavine@umass.edu.
