When you get involved with a nursing organization at Concordia, you open yourself up to all kinds of possibilities: connections with fellow Concordians who share your same interests, opportunities to practice and apply what you’ve learned in the classroom, and the chance to serve others in ways that match the unique skillsets you’ve been given. Check out some of the health professions student organizations you can look forward to joining at CUAA, and visit our Student Government Association page to see more of our student organization offerings.
