The ambassadors serve as a point of continuity for older MMAs to new ones, promoting lifelong learning by providing them with guidance and advice on how to best navigate and get the most out of the program:
- Knowledge transfer from outgoing cohorts to incoming cohorts on matters related to student life
- Advice on course elective selection and demystifying their content
- Academic mentoring for the Capstone project - in addition to alumni coming back as guest speakers to teach students every year, the ambassadors are also available to guide students with related challenges
- Sharing/hiring career opportunities
- Connecting students with alumni from different industries/companies of their interest
