UBC Sociology Students' Association

 

The UBC Sociology Students’ Association (SSA) is an organization of student leaders dedicated to enriching the experiences of all Sociology and Arts students interested in the field of Sociology. As the only students’ association specifically dedicated to Sociology, our club’s core ideals are: Building, Connecting, and Empowering. ‘Building’ focuses on creating a foundation for student success in their university journeys. ‘‘Connecting’ envisions a campus environment which actively supports networks between faculty, undergraduate, and graduate students. Finally, ‘Empowering’ strives to empower students to use their sociology degree, giving them the tools to do so while creating an engaging space.

Our Events

Throughout the school year, we host a variety of academic workshops, social events, and panel discussions on a wide range of current events and social issues. These events are organized with the aim to develop stronger connections within the Sociology community and other departments on campus. We strive to create a space to think openly, collaboratively, and critically about current events that are relevant to us as global citizens, residents of Canada, and members of the UBC community. We will discuss different perspectives, share food, connect with faculty and students of different levels, all while creating an interdisciplinary community. Students from all disciplines and departments at UBC are welcome and encouraged to join us!

Director Hiring

The SSA is looking to hire 11-13 student directors (from any year level, including undeclared first/second year students) to help the SSA under our VP Social, Outreach, External, Communications, Academic, and Administration portfolios! This is a great opportunity to get involved with the SSA and the UBC Sociology community with a low time committment while gaining valuable experience.
