Mentors in Tech is a program that helps overlooked and underserved tech students at smaller, less well known, accessible and affordable colleges navigate and launch their careers through:
- Structured yearlong mentorship with industry mentors.
- Integrated hands-on industry and Open Source capstone projects.
- Tailored recruiting that connects employers to students.
75%+ of MinT program graduates accept a tech role within 6 months after graduation with an average salary of $95,000.
MinT provides equitable, inclusive, and accessible pathways to the middle class for IT / CS students with unique strengths and diverse lived backgrounds. We serve many students who are especially the furthest away from opportunities in tech.
