About the program
BINFSOC peer mentoring aims to connect students who are interested in or studying Bioinformatics (in either the Engineering or Science streams or as an elective) with a more experienced mentor. Because the cohort of Bioinformatics students is small, we want to help connect you to a group of other students who study similar degrees. We want you to have fun and feel supported with a weekly mentoring session with your mentor between Weeks 1-10. BINFSOC will also host social events to bring together all mentor groups.
When does the program run?
