The EngiNearMe (ENM) summer program was designed to allow for students entering their senior year of high school to become familiar with engineering as a profession and learn about all the College of Engineering and Applied Science has to offer them. If you love talking to students and their families about your experience as a student and would love to help prospective students through an engineering design project, you might be a good fit for our ENM Mentor team.

The EngiNearMe (ENM) Mentor positions are responsible for providing holistic and inclusive support to EngiNearMe camp participants. ENM mentors are responsible for the following:

1. Building strong relationships with attendees
2. Ensuring the safety of participants throughout all activities, both on and off campus
3. Planning events which foster a strong and supportive community amongst participants
4. Leading a small group of participants through activities and ensuring they feel like valued members of the community

Requirements
Mentors are expected to work 7-8 hours each day during the summer experience, alternating coverage periods with other mentors.

Living arrangements 
Live with the ENM participants in the residence halls during the week of ENM.

Key Dates
Mentors must be present for the following dates:

1. Training: June 4, and June 6
2. Summer Experience: June 7-13

Compensation
$1200 for the one week session plus room and board for day mentors
$500 for night only mentors plus room and board (as a function of hosting minors we need at least six over 21 mentors to stay in the dorms at night–if we aren’t able to find enough day mentors that are also over 21 we will also hire additional student mentors to help with evening coverage).

If interested in applying please email your cover letter, resume and availability to ceasadmissions@colorado.edu. Applicants will be considered on a rolling basis but, if possible, please submit your application by April 3.

Hey, CEAE Seniors,

Want an easy way to help the environment?

Borrow, don’t buy, your graduation regalia!

Stop by the front desk of CU’s Environmental Center (UMC 355) to borrow caps, gowns, and regalia for your graduation. Undergraduate, master’s, and PhD items are available. Supplies are limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis.

This is a loan program, so all items must be returned after your graduation event.

There’s no cost—just return what you borrow.

Want to help future graduates? During graduation, the Environmental Center will have donation boxes around campus so students can donate their regalia to be reused by future graduates.
