Graduate Student Organizations

Purpose

The purpose of student organizations is to provide students with opportunities to participate in activities that develop their intellectual, emotional, spiritual, physical, and professional abilities. These organizations are important components to the academic life of the University. To meet all the different developmental needs of students, UTSA offers a multitude of student groups covering the following areas: academic, professional, religious, political, general social Greek, honor, military, service, cultural, special interest and sports/recreation. Every student is encouraged to become a member of those organizations that appeal to their interest. Research has found that involvement in student organizations:

• Improves students’ interpersonal skills

• Has a positive influence on skills in leadership, communication, teamwork, organizing, decision-making and planning

• Gives students a greater satisfaction with their college experience

• Provides useful experience in obtaining a job and providing job related skills

• Develops lifelong values of volunteerism and service to others
