The Oxford Dictionary says that a mentor is “a trusted counselor and guide”. The concept of mentorship is extremely pertinent in the field of MBA. But, what is it all about?
A mentor is an experienced individual who takes you under his wings and guides you in your endeavors. Mentorship in MBA programs is innovative as well as immensely helpful. As an MBA student, our mentor is ideally our friend, philosopher, and guide.
The mentorship program couples you with a seasoned professional in a particular field. This supplement an aspiring MBA with all the essential glimpses he is aspiring for, and what he should expect to face and rule over.
Enriching interaction with the corporate world increases the knowledge of the students and opens a vista of career opportunities through right contacts in front of them. Students are now expected to be goal-oriented. The mentorship program provides the opportunity for the mentor to pass on the legacy of knowledge and wisdom from one corporate generation to another corporate generation. The mentor should also be given some guidance on what his duties are and how he is expected to be an integral part in shaping an individual's future in the corporate world.
The first and foremost criterion of a mentorship program is to choose two individuals - the mentor and the student - on the basis of knowledge, communication and expertise in a particular field of interest. And most importantly, the consent from both that they are satisfied and compatible with the match.
Therefore, the concept of mentorship might be ideally termed as a link directly between the future MBA and the corporate community, and as a result it should be utilized to the optimum.

I completely agree with you, and support the fact that mentoring is very important during the MBA program. This is because with the guidance of mentors and teaching from the faculty, the combined effect can be a value added advantage to your exposure. Mentors can guide you over various issues like assignments, projects, researches, presentations, internships, placement preparation, and industry experiences.

I am completely agree with the thoughts of BIBS, ours mentors have an experience of more then 5-10 years as an MBA faculty and most of them are Doctorate, those people are extraordinary being a guide in your career path.
@.BIBS all the faculties are like our Mentors and they guide us very well, they use practical examples, case studies, and corporate visits. this kind of activities give us the real life experience for our career.
Mentors or Project mentors (specially we use this word in BIBS) are the key-players to make a good project report as well as they help us in our research work, it give us the confidence to face the corporate challenges during our research work.
So I completely agree that a mentor add value to you MBA degree.
