You will have the opportunity to agree to the pairing before commencing. Once agreed, it is your responsibility to organize the mentoring meetings at times suitable to your mentor and you. Please also note our recommendations here.

It is important that you define and communicate your goals for the mentoring relationship to your mentor, openly reflect on insights offered with a view to developing as a scholar of Law and the Humanities, and be prepared to generously share what you have gained and help others in our interdiscipline in the future.
