Explore your future!

The Pharmacy Mentorship Program Student Club and the Office of Advancement and Alumni Relations are delighted to bring you the PharmaSEE Mentorship Program (PMP)! 

Our program provides PharmD and PharmD for Pharmacists students at the Leslie Dan Faculty of Pharmacy the opportunity to ‘Seek, Experience and Explore’ in preparation for the transition from student life to professional life. The program assembles alumni mentors with vast professional experiences to facilitate guidance and insights, supporting mentees through a one-on-one relationship.

In addition to one-on-one mentorship, the PharmaSEE Mentorship Program hosts three Speed Networking events throughout the year. These lively sessions connect students with a wide range of pharmacy professionals, offering fresh perspectives and expanding career possibilities. Each event also features a career-focused presentation or panel, giving both mentees and mentors the opportunity to gain valuable professional insights and build meaningful connections across the profession.
