BIOneer Mentorship Program
The PUC School of Sciences聽BIOneer Mentorship Program聽is designed to help our students learn with purpose, rise in faith, and serve with love. Building a more connected community starts with fostering closer friendships, and at the center of the BIOneer community is the manatee, our beloved BIOneer mascot. Though originally conceived as a play on words (mentee : manatee), this聽curious, intelligent, and friendly聽animal represents several key aspects of the mentorship program and all the students that are involved.聽
- First-year mentees (manatees) being uniquely matched with a 3rd or 4th year mentor (manator) based on personality compatibility and professional development goals.
- Manators will work closely with their Manatees and be available as a convenient and reliable resource for academic, social, and spiritual advice, guidance, and tips.
- The work of a Manator ultimately serves to streamline a Manatee's transition into PUC's social network and promote academic success.
