NYU-Poly Student Clubs and Organizations

Getting involved with a student club or organization is easy and can enhance your overall experience at NYU-Poly. 

While providing students with outlets to explore personal and professional interests, co-curricular involvement through student groups also affords students with opportunities at developing skills in leadership, organization, time management, and problem solving. Participating in student activities, clubs and events is also a great way to meet new people and connect within the campus community. Lastly, the experiential education gained from student involvement is a valuable complement to the classroom setting and enhance your resume as you go out into the workforce. Whether you like building robots to looking to learn more about a specific culture, we have clubs and organizations that will meet your broad interests and needs. 

Use this website to jump start your co-curricular involvement through NYU-Poly’s recognized clubs and organizations and the various student groups that will enhance your experience and community connections on campus. The following links will provide you with the information you need to start getting involved as well as provide you with resources as a club leader!

Getting Involved in a Club or Organization

NYU-Poly is home to over 50 student organizations that represent academic, cultural, political, professional, religious, spiritual, service, social, and recreational interests. These groups provide limitless opportunities and events to achieve an active role on campus and to pursue individual interests. Please use the website to navigate the multitude of groups you can participate in and enhance your experience at NYU-Poly. 

Finding a student organization that is right for you involves taking risks and trying new things!

1. Attend the Student Organization and Activities CLUB DAY during Welcome Week, an event that introduces new and continuing students to NYU-Poly’s student life while assisting student organizations with recruitment and promotion.
