MentorLink Pilot Program 2025
Connecting alumni and students through meaningful mentorship.
Melbourne Business School, in partnership with the Student Representative Council (SRC), is proud to launch the MentorLink Pilot Program, a new initiative designed to foster professional development, leadership and lifelong connection across the Melbourne Business School community.
Running from November 2025 to March 2026, the MentorLink pilot will match alumni and current students from our degree programs in structured mentoring relationships. Whether you're looking to give back as a mentor or gain guidance as a mentee, MentorLink offers a unique opportunity to grow, connect, and contribute.
Update: Expressions of interest for the MentorLink Pilot Program have now closed. Mentors and mentees have been successfully matched, and the program is currently underway.
Looking ahead, we aim to launch a full-scale version of MentorLink in 2026 to continue connecting alumni and students through meaningful mentorship.
