Department of Political and Global Affairs

Virtual Mentoring Program


The Department of Political & Global Studies hosts a longstanding Virtual Mentoring Program that has proven valuable to students and alumni.

Our Virtual Mentoring Program helps students build understanding and confidence in their academic and professional development. It also gives them experience with professional communication, networking, and planning ahead.

Used in the PS 2000: Political Science & International Relations as a Profession class, the Virtual Mentoring Program connects currently enrolled students with alumni of the department. These graduates volunteer their time to mentor students who are starting off with their studies and crafting their career paths.

Mentors are selected by the Department due to their high achievements academically and professionally, as well as their leadership and contributions to MTSU.

Communication is typically done via email, but it may also take place via Zoom at the discretion of the mentors.

If you are a graduate who is interested in participating, please reach out to pga@mtsu.edu to get connected with us.
