Get Involved

Your educational experience and personal development can't be complete just in the classroom. Getting involved in campus will help develop your Power Skills (leadership, motivation, active listening, curiosity, problem solving and coaching). While technical skills allow you to do the job, employers identify these skills as essential for employees to excel in their position. As a PSEO student you can get involved in any number of our clubs or organizations. Getting involved also connects you with student leaders, faculty, and staff. This network of peers and professionals can help you discover your passions and provide more clarity on your academic pursuits.
