THIS JUST IN...

MentorConnection, an online mentor program sponsored by the MIT 
Science and Engineering Business Club, (http://www.mit-sebc.net/cm/) 
has expanded their service to include post-docs!  Interested postdocs 
can go to the website to register and input information about 
themselves which will be used to match them with a mentor.  While the 
fields that are available for inputting biographical information are 
currently geared towards students, we have been assured that this 
will be updated in the future to include more post-doc relevant 
fields.  As it is, it will be sufficient to match postdocs with 
mentors.  There is currently a registration period which ends 
February 2nd to allow proteges to be matched with a mentor for the 
spring semester.  More information below....


If you are looking for career advice and professional networking 
opportunities, check out the MIT MentorConnection sponsored by the 
MIT Science and Engineering Business Club.  This is a one-on-one 
mentorship program that introduces you to a professional in your 
field of interest.  Through e-mail exchanges with your personal 
mentor, you can develop deeper understandings of a particular 
industry, company, or field, as well as getting career advice from 
someone who has been there before!

MIT MentorConnection is open to all MIT undergraduate, graduate 
students and post-docs free of charge.  Registration for the spring 
semester opens from Jan. 15th to Feb. 2nd for new members.  Take 
advantage of this valuable career planning service!  Post-docs can 
sign up now at: http://www.mit-sebc.net/cm/ to be matched with a 
mentor for this spring.  **On the registration page, please begin 
your personal blurb with "post-doc"**.

for the spring semester of 2004.  If you would like to help us
