Welcome to the Latinas in Computing Web Portal.

MentorNet^®'s One-on-One Program links undergraduate and graduate students, postdoctoral scholars, and early career faculty in engineering, science, math, and technology with professionals in their fields for mentoring relationships.

"Emerging graduates will benefit greatly from having forged strong mentoring relationships and networks during their years of study -- both in terms of successfully locating their employers of choice, and in terms of understanding the skills and knowledge that are needed and valued by their future employers."

- Carol B. Muller, Ph.D., Founder, MentorNet
