Student Support
Upper-year engineering students helping you navigate your first year at UNB.
About the Program
The Peer Mentor Program assists first-year engineering students at UNB by introducing them to campus resources, EUS events, and engineering subsocieties.
The program also connects new students with upper-year peers who can share experience, answer questions, and offer practical guidance for navigating common first-year challenges.
