Student Organizations

Join one of the 30 registered student organizations (RSO), or create your own, on campus. Student organizations provides students a complimentary experience to their academic work through community building and leadership training opportunities to define and cultivate personal and professional learning and development. Things students gain from getting involved with a student organization include: communication and presentation skills, personal and professional network of colleagues, and leadership experience with budgeting, leading a team, and event-planning.
