Welcome to Student Organizations at IAU College of Medicne

There are many benefits to joining a student organization like making new friends, developing new skills and abilities, working as part of a team, learning to set and achieve goals, sharing your time and talents, as well as having fun. As you grow at IAU, you will discover that the more active you become in these organizations, the more you will benefit from your educational experience, both in and out of the classroom! Being a new school, Student Organizations are just forming at IAU. Please contact the Dallas office if you wish to start one of your own.
