Student Organizations

Student Council

The COPH Student Council will be organizing a series of events from fundraisers to informal social gatherings.  The Council encourages every student to get involved not only at the College level, but also at the community level, the state level, and the national level. 

MISSION:
The mission of the UAMS College of Public Health Student Council is to advance the interests of enrolled students in the COPH, to serve as an exemplar of public health values and principles, to assist in the development of policies for students, to determine ways to communicate policies to students, to select representatives to appropriate College committees, and to assist in planning student affairs.

SERVICE:
Each Spring, the UAMS College of Public Health student body elects one Student Council (SC) representative for every 10 MPH students, one representative for every 20 Post Baccalaureate Certificate students, and one alternate for each degree program.  The elected representatives serve a two-year, staggering term and work on a variety of projects, both within the College and campus-wide.  The SC meets at least three times a semester and currently consists of five officers and five committee chairs.  Student Council members function as liaisons between the student body and the administration.  One important purpose of the Council is to ensure clear lines of communication among students, staff, and faculty.
