About the program           
Celebrating its 25th Anniversary in 2027, UWA Career Mentor Link is a six-month mentoring program running between April and October. The program connects UWA students (mentees) with experienced industry professionals (mentors) to support career development and professional growth.

To be eligible, students must be enrolled in an award course and have completed at least one year of undergraduate study or be currently enrolled in a postgraduate course.

Students are matched with mentors whose professional backgrounds align with their field of study, career interests, or professional aspirations.

The program provides students with an opportunity to explore career pathways, gain insights into industry expectations, expand their professional networks, and build confidence in pursuing their career goals. Mentors contribute by sharing their experience, knowledge and guidance to support students throughout their career journey.
