University Student Ambassadors

The University Student Ambassador Program is coordinated and managed by the Office of Student Engagement. It’s comprised of student leaders (Ambassadors) from across campus who display passion, enthusiasm, and commitment to the University. The program has a dual mission to create interprofessional experiences for MUSC students and serve the broader Charleston community through educational outreach opportunities.

Ambassadors have a genuine understanding of university-wide student programs and services and can effectively communicate how these services impact the MUSC student experience. Lastly, Ambassadors assist the University in achieving its community engagement and strategic educational priorities.

University Student Ambassador Goals:

• Create an atmosphere of enthusiasm about campus culture, co-curricular activities, and opportunities for leadership development.
• Provide students and visitors with pertinent information about university-wide student services and programs and resources offered by the Office of Student Engagement.
• Role model the values of the university and demonstrate the highest standards of professionalism.
• Facilitate pathway programs for K-12 and undergraduate college students.

Ambassador activities may include:

• Volunteering for MUSC Welcome Week events
• Facilitating campus visit experiences for K-12 schools, colleges, and individual visitors
• Serving on student panels as needed
• Participating in community outreach and educational pathway initiatives

MUSC Educational Outreach Opportunities

The MUSC Office of Student Engagement is excited to arrange opportunities for K-12 students to engage with our university. We believe it is important for youth to have experiences that expose them to different education options and career paths.

Use the form below to request an MUSC educational experience led by our University Student Ambassadors. Our student leaders can provide a guided, campus visit experience; come to your school to facilitate an educational or career-related activity; or host a virtual program for your students.

Our ability to accept a request is predicated on the nature of the request and the availability of our Ambassador team. Upon receiving your form, someone from the Office of Student Engagement will contact you to discuss your request in further detail. If you have questions about the request form, please contact Sarah Johnson (johnsons1@musc.edu) or Dante Pelzer (pelzerd@musc.edu).
