INTERNAL MENTORSHIP
The Internal Mentorship Program is a semester-long program in which a WIB general body member or associate member is paired with an upperclassman at Brown, and the two meet regularly throughout the semester in addition to attending socials with all of the mentors and mentees in the program. Mentor-mentee pairs are established based on mutual interests and experiences, and topics to discuss include course selection, internships, resume writing, and recruiting. Applications to be a mentee are released at the beginning of each semester. Individuals interested in being a mentor can email womeninbusiness@brown.edu.
STUDENT QUOTES

(‘25, Business-Economics)
“I’m hoping to pursue either finance or consulting after graduation, and my mentor (Emma Golden, ‘23) has been an immense help through the investment banking recruiting process. My biggest takeaway were her tips regarding how to choose an appropriate career path and her advice that networking is key.“
Gaby Choi
(‘26, CS & International Business)
“So far, I’ve really enjoyed the internal mentorship experience, because it has allowed me to see real-life examples of the different business-related paths people have taken after graduating from Brown. Hearing about the experiences of alumni who have very recently experienced this transition is so interesting and makes me really excited for the future!“

“For the two semesters I’ve been a part of the program, I’ve been assigned two incredibly welcoming, helpful, and open mentors who have helped me gain a closer perspective on what different recruiting processes looks like, how I can prepare myself across different aspects of my involvements, and new fields that I might be interested in.”
