Also, CFIG will be partnering with CBS Investment Banking Club in creating a  mentorship program; Columbia Business School's Investment Banking Club is offering a mentorship program for undergraduate students.

In this program, students will be paired up with a current second-year investment banking club member who will be going into investment banking and can act as an informal mentor.
