Virginia Tech Pamplin's Undergraduate Mentoring Program

The mission of the Pamplin Undergraduate Program (PUMP) is to provide support to students with their transition into and through college by connecting them with resources to help them develop academically, personally, and professionally in the classroom and in their careers. Programming at each level is tailored to students in their current academic year and stage of their career readiness. PUMP peer mentors are carefully selected and trained to offer advice and guidance while providing their own student perspective on the Pamplin experience. PUMP also provides opportunities for current students to build relationships and network with notable Pamplin alumni currently working in the business industry. In addition to alumni connections, PUMP provides a series of professional workshops presented by corporate sponsors and potential employers. As an InclusiveVT initiative, the PUMP programs are designed to foster a welcoming, inclusive, and affirming environment to help our students reach success in their undergraduate and post-graduate lives.
