Started in 2017, Mentors in the Making is a 1:1 mentoring program at BNY Fab Lab for underserved youth ages 14-18 from the Pittsburgh area. The program runs from October to March.
Students are paired with STEM professionals to co-learn digital fabrication, software, and design skills.
Weekly sessions are held in the Fab Lab and online.
Participants receive materials, transportation vouchers, and a laptop with CAD software.
Phase 1: Earn CNC machine certification through hands-on learning.
Phase 2: Collaborate on a community-impact capstone project using new design and fabrication skills.
Mentors model problem-solving, collaboration, and communication while offering guidance on school and career choices.
