Introduction

Just ASK stands for Just Alumni Sharing Knowledge. Just ASK is about current Engineering graduate students connecting one-on-one with alumni. These mentoring relationships are intended to focus on:

  • Academics, study skills, and day-to-day issues surrounding graduate school
  • Career planning and networking
  • Guidance on personal issues

Just ASK mentors are Engineering alumni who have volunteered to share their experiences with graduate students. Any current graduate student may request contact with a mentor.  Once a match has been made, it is up to the mentee to initiate contact. After the first contact, the pair will discuss if and how they want to build a professional relationship. Communication can be through email, snail mail, phone calls, or in person. 

This service is coordinated by the CoE Office of Graduate Education. Please direct any questions to ajrose@umich.edu.
