    For things to go well, you need young hands and experienced minds.

    Prof. Tadeusz Kotarbiński, the first Rector of the University of Lodz

    About the Program

    Mentoring is a voluntary, collaborative developmental relationship. We connect experienced alumni of the University of Lodz with students (Mentees) who want to take a conscious and proactive approach to their career and personal development.

    This is not traditional tutoring or a series of lectures. Mentoring is built on trust, confidentiality, and the open exchange of experiences. Over a period of six months (from January to June), you work one-on-one with a professional from a field that interests you.

    What can a mentoring pair work on?

    • Defining career goals and identifying possible development paths
    • Gaining a better understanding of industries, roles, and labour market realities
    • Preparing to enter the job market and build a career with purpose
    • Developing communication skills, self-confidence, and professional relationships
    • Planning actions, making decisions, and drawing lessons from experience
    • Strengthening well-being, resilience, and a more conscious approach to work and life

    Mentoring supports you in finding your own solutions. A mentor inspires, asks questions, and shares their knowledge and experience, but you are the author of your own success.

    [Translate to English:] uczestnicy Programu mentoringowego
    Mentor and Mentee

    Mentor is a professional with industry, business, or subject-matter expertise who is willing to support the development of students.

    • shares their knowledge and experience
    • helps examine challenges from different perspectives
    • asks questions that help clarify thoughts and ideas
    • supports goal-setting and action planning
    • provides constructive feedback
    • inspires growth and action

    Mentee is a student of the University of Lodz, regardless of faculty or year of study, who wants to take an active role in their personal and professional development.

    • defines their goals and development needs
    • actively participates in mentoring meetings
    • prepares topics for discussion
    • is open to new perspectives and feedback
    • puts agreed actions into practice

    What Will You Gain from Participating in the Program?

    • Set realistic yet ambitious career goals – with the support of experienced mentors.
    • Gain a deeper understanding of your strengths and areas for development – an individualized approach will help you make the most of your potential.
    • Receive motivation and inspiration to take action – your mentor will share practical insights and experience that you won’t find in textbooks.
    • Get support in turning your plans into reality – from the initial idea through to implementation.
    • Develop a better understanding of the job market – learn about the career paths available to you and discover which ones may be the most rewarding.

    The University of Lodz Mentoring Program is an opportunity to connect with people who were once in the same place you are today and who have since become experts in their fields. Benefit from their knowledge and experience to make informed decisions and confidently plan your future.

    FAQ

    The University of Lodz Mentorship programme is open to all students of the University of Lodz, regardless of their level of studies or major.

    Working with a mentor involves regular meetings during which a student can benefit from the mentor’s knowledge and practical experience. The mentor supports career planning, helps broaden the student’s perspective on professional opportunities, shares experiences, and inspires action. It is a space for asking questions, clearing up doubts, and gaining valuable guidance.

    Meetings are held at least once a month over a period of six months. The exact number of meetings and their format (in-person or online) are decided individually within each mentoring pair.

    The first step is to read the mentors' profiles, which can be found in the list of mentors at the beginning of each call.

    Then fill in the online application form. In the form you must indicate up to 3 preferred mentors. However, the indication is only informative and does not guarantee assignment to the selected mentor. The final decision on the selection of the mentee belongs to the mentor.

    The application form is published at the beginning of the recruitment for each edition.

    Leave us your contact details, and we will inform you about the start of the recruitment.

    You should indicate up to 3 mentors in the application form, which is published at the beginning of October.

    See the project schedule for details. If you do not want to miss the deadline, leave us your contact details in the application form.

    In the application form, you should describe why you decided to apply to the University of Lodz Mentorship Programme, attach your current CV and a photo. Your answers along with your CV will be forwarded to the mentors, and your photo will be used when the mentorship pairs are published on the website. Make sure it is as professional as possible.

    There is no limit on reapplying to the University of Lodz Mentorship Programme; however, priority is always given to those candidates who have not worked with a mentor before.

    Any additional activity outside of your major will certainly be welcomed and increase your chances of participating in the Project. However, lack of additional activities does not eliminate your chances.

    Your application is sent to the mentors listed in the application form. In order to increase your chances of participating in the programme, with your approval, the application may be forwarded to another mentor.
