The Department of Treasury and Finance (DTF) 2020 Mentoring Women in Economics program 

DTF’s Mentoring Women program is designed to connect young women in Years 11 and 12 or early university who are interested in economics with female economists from the Victorian Treasury. The program aims to address a lack of diversity in the field by presenting economics as an exciting career path for young women and showing them what a career in economics could look like. Students do not need to be studying economics to participate, and several of our past participants had no prior experience with economics before entering the program. More information about the program as well as student testimonials are available at: https://www.dtf.vic.gov.au/careers/mentoring-women.

Applications are now open and interested applicants should send through a completed application form to: mentoringwomen@dtf.vic.gov.au

Applications close midnight Friday 3 July 2020.
