Why should I get involved?
There are many reasons to be involved in a student club at NAU or to join a professional organization. Student clubs provide a social aspect as well as allowing students to do something outside of class that they are interested in. Students can supplement their experiences here at NAU with other interests. It may make you a better student and a better citizen.
Professional organizations are not affiliated with NAU but offer many opportunities for students to get involved and begin learning the ropes of their chosen profession. Many times there are also opportunities to post your work or get involved at a conference or meeting. Professional organizations are also a great way to begin networking with other professionals in the field. It may lead to a career or internship opportunity that otherwise wouldn’t have come about. Often by being a member you will be included on email distribution of materials that are good resources for your profession. Getting involved does not only have to be at the campus level. Students can take advantage of the many opportunities that professional organizations offer, just by signing up. Get involved today; it will only create more opportunities for personal and professional growth.
