  The IGNITE Leadership Experience is a fall semester leadership program for 1st and 2nd year undergraduate students designed to gain insight into personal values and leadership style. IGNITE is designed to be a springboard into involvement at UIC. IGNITE will help participants gain insight into the values, communication, and general leadership skills necessary for positive involvement on campus.

  What is the role of an IGNITE mentor?

  IGNITE mentors aid in the development of participants, while continuing to grow their own leadership skills. Mentors will work in pairs to facilitate discussions and personal growth in a small group of IGNITE participants. It is an expectation that mentors will share their knowledge, skills, and perspectives as leaders on campus to foster the growth of underclassmen students.  

  What are the requirements to serve as an IGNITE mentor?

  • Any currently enrolled UIC junior or senior undergraduate student is eligible to apply.
  • Mentors must commit to each of the nine IGNITE sessions on Monday nights from 3:45 PM - 6 PM starting September 29 and ending on November 24.
  • Unfortunately, due to the nature of our program, if you have a class/work/personal conflict that overlaps with our program schedule, you are not eligible to apply for the program. Please try again next year if you are able!
  • Mentors must attend two 2-hour training sessions in late summer / early fall.
  • Mentors must attend Catalyst LeaderShape on Saturday, September 27 from 9 AM - 5 PM.
  • We are seeking current leaders on campus with a passion for helping students find their place at UIC.
