Student Engagement

The full university experience is not complete without a healthy balance of engagement in activities outside the classroom! The Centre for Student Community & Leadership Development can help introduce students to a wide array of Student Clubs and Student Governments!

A Student Government is concerned with a broad array of activities, including representation of the interests of those students in discussions with the academic and administrative authorities of the University, a Faculty, or a College.
