Get Involved

At Purdue, there are plenty of ways for you to connect, learn, lead, and just have fun outside of the classroom!

Getting involved in student organizations is a valuable part of your college experience! Student organizations allow you to connect to something larger than yourself. This can expand your view of the world and help you consider your future role in it.  Student organizations also provide opportunities for leadership development, community service, and networking. 

Exploratory Studies offers some fantastic student organizations that YOU will want to consider!

Exploratory Studies Ambassadors

The Exploratory Studies Ambassadors is a select group of students dedicated to the positive promotion of the Exploratory Studies Program and Purdue University.  The group is comprised of current and former Exploratory students who share their experiences with prospective Purdue students at orientation and admissions events throughout the year.  Ambassadors have the vital role of communicating their experience as an exploring student.  The program allows talented Exploratory students to meet, interact, and network with future Boilermakers and their families, as well as their fellow peers.
