  • Werth Institute: NetWerx Mentoring Program

    NetWerx is a mentorship/networking program targeted to first-year and sophomore students who are looking to take their first step in their entrepreneurial journey. This program connects current UConn students “virtually” to alumni for a series of five 30 minute sessions. Alumni mentors have backgrounds in a wide array of areas including technology, marketing, engineering, and business. They are passionate about helping students build their self-confidence and discover the versatility of entrepreneurship...it’s more than just starting a business!

    Students will be matched with a mentor toward the end of October for our next cohort. Interested students are encouraged to fill out the application found here: https://uconnwerthinstitute.secure.force.com/MentorshipRegistraton/
     
    Once students fill out the application, a list of dates will be sent out to attend a breif NetWerx Informational session prior to getting matched with a mentor. We offer both in-person and virtual options for this.
