Honor and academic societies and other academic-interest student associations are a great way to immerse yourself further in your area of study and gain additional experience in the field. Plus, they look great on your resume.
Learn about additional honor societies and academic organizations through the Rosenberg Center for Student Involvement.
- allow you to meet and network with students and faculty who have similar interests
