Ilitch Business students have an opportunity to be matched with a professional corporate mentor and work one-on-one throughout the entire academic year. Students and mentors will fill out the associated forms to determine each of their long-term career interests and goals in order to get matched together to help students move their interests forward, expose them to the day-to-day world of work, and other professional opportunities for success after college.
