The DUESA has collaborated with Tobin Ansong to provide a mentorship program! This program is to connect Dalhousie students with professional alumni working in fields related to economics.

This is a great opportunity to take advantage of while spots are still available! Many of the mentorships have already been successfully assigned, but there is still a chance for some connections!
