Want to develop your leadership skills, make new friends at UTA, and get involved? We’re looking for outstanding future educators to serve as Student Ambassador. 

 

The Student Ambassador program’s purpose is to represent the College of Education at community, recruiting, volunteer and professional events! 

  • Ambassadors should be enthusiastic about the College of Education and UTA in general. They should be able to communicate basic knowledge about the college, as well as be able to share their experiences with potential students.
  • In sharing knowledge and experience, ambassadors will be an integral part of recruiting and increasing the amount of students pursuing a career in education through UTA's College of Education.

It is an amazing opportunity for Education students to connect to campus life and College of Education faculty and staff. It can also provide networking with professions and help developing leadership, interpersonal and social skills. Ambassadors will also receive free UTA swag and special graduation cords to wear at commencement.
