What is Project Protégé?
Think of Project Protégé as an additional experience to your student life, which aids in your pathway to success. It’s a unique programme that pairs you with experienced SIM graduates who have already navigated the career paths you’re considering. Through one-on-one mentorship, they’ll share valuable insights from their own professional journeys, offering advice that textbooks simply can’t provide. And the best part? It’s not just you who benefits. Mentors also grow by sharing their knowledge and gaining fresh perspectives from students like you.
