Student Organizations
The department supports student organizations for each of our programs.
Information about student groups is distributed in department orientation activities and in classes; information is also posted on department bulletin boards located in the first floor hallways of Van Bokkelen Hall. Students are encouraged to join these groups and get connected with faculty and other students in the major. The department sponsors the following students organizations.
