Student Clubs
University life is not limited to academic education. Social activities, student clubs, community initiatives, excursions, workshops and collaborative projects form an important part of the student experience.
ARUCAD’s student clubs bring together students with shared interests and abilities. Through these clubs, students can build social connections, work towards common goals, organise activities and contribute directly to the University’s social and cultural life.
ARUCAD has 22 active student clubs. With the participation of students, the clubs continue to grow, develop new areas of activity and become more productive each academic year.
Benefits of Student Clubs
By participating in student clubs, social events and off-campus activities, students can:
Become part of a multicultural university environment and learn about different cultures.

Club Activities
Student clubs are student-led communities where participants develop ideas, take responsibility and gain experience in collaborative work. Club members can contribute to organising meetings, developing activity ideas, distributing responsibilities and coordinating activities with the relevant University units.
Depending on the club’s area of interest, activities may include workshops, training sessions, talks, film screenings, concerts, dance and theatre performances, exhibitions, sporting activities, nature excursions, competitions, social responsibility projects and cultural gatherings.
Through student clubs, students can undertake activities related to their own disciplines and develop interdisciplinary projects with students from other departments.

Joining a Student Club
ARUCAD students may join one or more student clubs according to their interests. Joining a club can be particularly helpful for new students, as it supports their adjustment to campus life, enables them to meet students from different departments and gives them opportunities to take part in collaborative projects.
In addition to participating in activities, club members may propose new events, take responsibility in organising activities and contribute to the club’s work throughout the academic semester.
Applications for club membership can be submitted through the ARUCAD Student Clubs Registration Form:

Establishing a New Student Club
In addition to joining an existing club, students may apply to establish a new student club with friends who share common interests and objectives. Applications should specify the proposed club’s name, purpose, area of activity, planned events and founding members.
Applications are reviewed in accordance with the University’s rules and assessment procedures for student clubs. Proposed club options are not added to the active student club list until the establishment process has been completed and the club has officially begun operating.
Activities and Announcements
Current activities organised by student clubs, including workshops, excursions, screenings, performances and other projects, can be followed through the ARUCAD website and the University’s official announcement channels.
