What is AMI?
The Faculty of Arts Internship Mentorship Initiative (AMI) was created in collaboration with the Arts Undergraduate Society (AUS) to form a student network of past and future interns. Students who have completed internships in the past (AMI Mentors) will guide students (AMI Mentees) who want to apply for an internship or internship funding through the Arts Internship Office. The goal is to foster a more in-depth, personalized mentor-mentee relationship between students.听听
How does it work?听
Students returning from past AIO or ARIA internships are matched with mentees, interested in an internship for the next summer. Our signup sheet matches mentees with an AMI mentor.
We will match mentors and mentees and will notify the matching results by email. Once matched, there will be events and opportunities for mentors and mentees to meet.听
