  • Is medicine included?: Medicine is also included! While many people consider it its own category, medicine is still STEM and those in or interested in medicine may be part of this organization, though we ask that you do not offer unsolicited medical advice to our members.
  • Who is the target audience?: We are mainly geared towards middle and high school aged students for mentees, and college level and above for mentors, but anyone is welcome to join at any age! 
  • Can you be a mentor and a mentee at the same time?: Yes, absolutely! We function as a "chain of command" type organization going by seniority/experience, so it is entirely possible and welcome for you to both mentor someone younger/less experienced than you, while also having a mentor yourself.
