Connect with a mentor

FEIT iMentor Program
The FEIT iMentor Program provides peer-to-peer mentoring for international students in the Faculty of Engineering and IT (FEIT), supporting your transition to UTS.
Starting university in a new country is an exciting, yet challenging experience, particularly when navigating a new culture and academic environment. Through this program, first-year students are connected with experienced mentors who offer guidance, advice, and a supportive network to help you settle into life at UTS.
Our mentors are friendly international students from FEIT who have gone through similar experiences and are eager to share their insights and support you along your journey.
