Conference Mentoring Program (August 11–12, 2025)
We will have two mentoring activities at the SOUPS conference. Registration for these activities is required, and the deadline to register for either is July 31, 2025.
Conference Mentoring Registration
Monday, August 11 (Lunch Tables)
A collection of in-person tables mixing mentors and mentees will be held on the first day of the main conference and be organized by interest and career goals. These tables will have 1–2 mentors, with the rest of the spots reserved for mentees. We will email participants their table assignments the week before the conference.
Tuesday, August 12 (Speed Mentoring)
Short speed-mentoring sessions will be held on the second day of the main conference. This event is designed to encourage broader interaction between mentors and mentees. We will email participants their assignments the week before the conference.
