Meet Our Belonging MentorsOur Belonging Mentor office is full of students who have experience in the CS program and want to help you succeed. They offer academic and career advisement, information on research positions and internships, resume help and technical interview practice, and — just as importantly — friendship and a place to feel at home. They can also help you find resources both within the department and across campus whenever you’re not sure where to turn.
Throughout the year, our Belonging Mentors also host events where students can connect, celebrate, and get to know one another—from community gatherings and socials, to cultural celebrations, to our annual CS Lab Tour, which introduces students to the department's research labs and opportunities.
Location: TMCB 1118
Our hours vary by semester — we’re open most weekday business hours during Fall and Winter, with reduced hours during Spring and Summer.
To meet with a belonging mentor, stop by the office any time we’re open. If you’d like to schedule a one-on-one appointment, or if our hours don’t align with your availability, please email cs-mentors@byu.edu
