The Division of Student Affairs provides students with innovative programs, services, and facilities designed to support academic success, career preparation, and personal development. Stu- dents are challenged to build on their talents and enhance their educational experience by engag- ing in programs and activities that help develop leadership skills and a global perspective, provide opportunities to engage in their community, build their professional readiness, and create lifelong learners. By doing so, they broaden their under- standing of themselves and the world in which they live.
UTEP students have a proud history of helping to shape the University. Students make an impact by getting involved in campus life through the Student Government Association, one of more than 325 registered student organizations, Fra- ternities & Sororities, on-campus employment, and volunteering for and participating in campus programs and events. Involvement also leads to opportunities to serve on campus advisory com- mittees and task forces that shape new programs, services, and facilities for their fellow students.
While helping to enhance campus life, students enhance their own communication, interpersonal, and leadership skills. Students who get involved in campus life develop lifelong learning skills, a greater global awareness, healthy and balanced lifestyles, and a commitment to community service. They also prepare themselves to serve as leaders in their professional and civic communi- ties after graduation.
