Student Organizations

There are activities, clubs, events and organizations for everyone at Indiana University Kokomo.

Do you sing, dance, or play sports? There is a group for you here! Do you want to explore a new language or learn a new skill? You’ll find others here who share your passion! You can even start your own club and bring your fellow cougars together to dig into a shared interest.

Taking part in a student organization creates valuable experiences and memories, setting you up with connections that will give you a head start on your future. Students involved in clubs and organizations are passionate about the work they do and the personal and professional relationships they build.

And they’re excited about where their experiences will take them!

Top Reasons to Get Involved

Make New Friends

It can be difficult to get to know others on campus if you only see them in class. Join an organization to meet others with similar interests!

Build Your Resume

Employers and grad schools want to see that you accomplished more than earning your degree during your time at IU Kokomo. Get involved and build your resume!

Develop Leadership Skills

Everyone can be a leader – you just have to find your place and develop your skills. You can accomplish this by stepping up in an organization, or applying for the annual Fall Leadership Retreat.

Make IUK Your Home

This is YOUR campus – so get involved and feel at home! Your voice and opinion matter. Make your IU Kokomo experience one you will remember and cherish!

Life as a Cougar

Attending college is more than going to class and earning your degree. It’s making friends, exploring your interests, and growing your skills for the future!

Cheer on our Cougars at a basketball game in the Student Activities and Events Center, find your community in the Multicultural Center, or secure the internship that will boost your resume – Cougar Life is always vibrant at IU Kokomo!

Get involved

Bringing students together
