Department Clubs
Your guide to running a successful department club at UBC!
UBC department clubs for engineering students exist to provide students with opportunities to engage more deeply with their field of study outside of the classroom. Students can expect their program clubs to contribute to the following:
- Organize events, such as guest lectures, field trips, or workshops
- Provide members with opportunities to learn more about the subject matter
- Help students build relationships with faculty and professionals in the field
- Network with other students who share their interests
- Provide students with a sense of community within the larger university, and
- Help students develop important skills and knowledge that can be useful in their future careers
