BMED Students Ambassador Application

Ambassador Program

The Ambassador Program is an opportunity for students who are dedicated to serving and representing our Health and Biomedical Science department. Student Ambassadors provide campus tours, perform campus activities and community activities.

Ambassador Students

Ambassador Students are student volunteers who love to share their experiences about their life as BMED students. They introduce new students to events like Students Success Academy and Freshman orientation. They also drive students to recruiting events, in order to get more applicants and give new students an opportunity to enhance their professional development, communication skills, and an opportunity to take a part in the university world.

Importance

Student ambassadors make a big impression on new and prospective students. Campus tours led by student ambassadors play a major role in whether a prospective student decides to enroll in a BMED program. This program is also a great way to make new students feel at home.

Characteristics:

  • Outstanding Academic Status
  • Marketing skills
  • An Established Online Presence
  • A High Level of Professionalism
  • Natural Leadership Skills
  • A Passion for Building and Growing Relationships
