CMNS Dean's Student Advisory Council recruitment

The CMNS Dean's Student Advisory Council (DSAC) is an opportunity for undergraduate students within the College of Computer, Mathematical, and Natural Sciences to work directly with the Dean of their College and other administrators to better the overall experience of the college.

 

This student lead group will have the chance to share and raise student voices, plan community events, and shape the expectations for the council for years to come! Join for a valuable leadership experience within your college and to leave your legacy within CMNS!

 

Students will be selected from a diverse set of majors and academic years within CMNS based on the quality of their application. Selected members can expect a time commitment of no more than five hours a month for both the Fall and Spring semesters. Students will serve for one academic year with the ability to return.
