Why Join a Student Club?
There are many benefits to joining a student club at the University, some more obvious than others. Let’s have a look!
- It’s a great way to meet new people, and not just any people… Fellow students who share your passion and interests! And who knows? You may end up making lifetime friends.
- You can network with various organizations in the community. Through our career and student life services we will help you get in touch with organizations in the community so you can promote your cause, work on a joint project or find funding for an event. Networking and making connections with the community this early will be an amazing way to meet potential employers in the future.
- You can promote art, a profession, a good cause. Mobilize other students to join so you can spread the joy and fun of participating in a Student Club. Share and spread your passion, not only within the University but also within the wider community.
- You can develop skills that will help you in and out of the classroom. Ever heard of soft-skills? Being a member of a Student Club will help you develop soft skills such as communication, organization, leadership, teamwork, networking, and more.
- You can use your Student Club participation to boost your CV. Last but not least, by including your Student Club experiences (and any other co-curricular and extracurricular activities) you are demonstrating that you actually have all the skills you are stating in your CV. It will definitely make you stand out!
