Developing a User-Centered Entrepreneurship Mentorship Platform

Abstract

This project focuses on the development of a mentorship program launched by the McCombs School of Business’ Entrepreneurship Minor Department. The aim of the program is to foster professional relationships between the UT Austin undergraduate Entrepreneurship minor students and seasoned professionals. The program addresses the various needs of students who come to UT at different stages of their professional and business journeys. Through the program they can connect with experienced professionals who can guide them in starting and growing their businesses. During the course of the project, I used UX methodologies to design an effective platform that streamlines the onboarding experience for mentors and helps students efficiently find and schedule appointments with professionals. The goal is to create a seamless and user-centered mentorship program that enhances professional development for students and professionals alike.
