Communication Studies Mentoring
What is the mentoring program?
The Communication Studies Mentoring program is designed to help students prepare for their Communication Studies futures. The goal of the mentoring program is to help students with questions they may have about all things Communication Studies. From deciding on the best bachelor’s program at various universities to exploring job opportunities, we work together to make a plan. The mentors are made up of faculty and Cerritos College alumni. Students can join at any time in the semester and at any time during their time at Cerritos. The program is open to Communication Studies majors and minors. Join us!
How can mentoring help me?
We help you prepare for what’s next. If it’s getting your AAT degree and diving into a career, we’ll explore that path! If you plan on transferring, we’ll look at different programs and find what interests you! If you’re not sure what you can do with a Communication Studies degree, we’ll cover that as well! If you have questions about a specific Comm class, we can talk about that too.
Who are the mentors?
