ECE Peer Mentors
ECE Peer Mentors
The Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) Peer Mentors are returning upperclassmen in the ECE major who serve as resources and role models for new students in the ECE department. Peer Mentors are responsible for helping students transition to life at Ohio State and be a source of information about the university and engineering programs.
Peer Mentors are not Academic Advisors or tutors, but they provide referrals to support services, general advice on the transition to college life, and guidance in utilizing campus resources.
