The NYU Peer Undergraduate Mentorship Program aims to support women in STEM fields by pairing Freshman and Sophomore undergraduates with Juniors and Seniors in their field of interest. Mentors help guide underclassmen through their first years at NYU by offering advice on classes, research, and student life, and major in a variety of STEM fields. The aim of the mentoring program is to help underclassmen in large first year classes and offer upperclassmen students a chance to give back and promote their passion for STEM. Our mentors aim to help the mentee gain insight on the STEM major path. The program aims to help students see past the first year challenges that all STEM majors struggle through, looking instead towards the benefits and rewards of continuing in the field. PUMP also provides mentors with networking opportunities in their prospective career fields and areas of research.
