Description of the initiative

The PSSD Mentoring project aims to be a formative activity to support the didactics of the students of the M.Sc. of PSSD, focused on an area of difficult integration into the curriculum of the course: the transition from students to professionals. At the basis of the project there is a net of relationships among PSSD students and alumni, aiming to provide a professional growth. Subjects involved in the project:
  • M.Sc. PSSD as promoter and organizer of the project.
  • PSSD students, as Mentees (maximum 40 students in the first edition).
  • PSSD alumni, as Mentors (ideally, one Mentor per Mentee).
  • Career Service, PSSD Advisory Board and Service Design Drinks to organize transversal moments.

The project will be developed on more level of interaction among the actors:
    • synchronous collective for the participants to the program, for the PSSD class,mainly in digital. (Event 1 - PROGRAM KICK OFF; Event 2 - GET READY FOR JOB INTERVIEW; Event 3 - UNBOXING A SERVICE DESIGNER. Two events dedicated to job profiles as PSS Designer: WORKING AS: EMPLOYEE OR FREELANCER? and WORKING IN: UNIVERSITY OR PUBLIC SECTOR? One Final Event (in presence if possible) - NETWORKING. All events will be interactive.
  • 4 asynchronous one-to-one meeting between mentor and mentee, self-managed (also in digital).
Meetings will take place in the late afternoon, at an approximate time of 17:00-19:00.
