Polonium Mentoring 2024-2025
Bigger, broader, bolder - the 2024-2025 iteration of Polonium Mentoring is about to start - join in!
Who can participate?
To become a Mentor you should be at the doctoral student level or above (especially for pairing in the academic path). Highly experienced and impactful Mentors will be considered regardless of educational status. We are recruiting Mentors from different backgrounds - academia, industry, or business.
You can become a Mentee at all stages of your career.
The programme is global and we welcome every scientific discipline to join. We especially encourage participants from social and political sciences that constituted the lowest percentage of attendees in the previous years.
You can be a Mentor and a Mentee in the same time!

You are eligible to become a Mentee on every career stage, you can even be a mentor and a mentee simultaneously.
During the registration, we will ask you about what you hope to gain from a relationship with a Mentor, and in what areas you would need support the most. Just a heads up - you will be asked to submit this information in the form of a motivation letter, among others. Write us why you believe you should be part of the program and get a chance to network with successful professionals.
