NuFS Student Club Officer Duties
Being
a club officers will give you the opportunity to get more involved in your
field of study, let you meet a lot of people, give you a chance to learn
more, give you a chance to network, get leadership skills, and it looks
really good on your resume. Another benefit of becoming an officer is that
you will earn one unit (or two units as the President) per semester. These
units can be applied towards nutrition electives! However, only a total of
four units can count towards a B.S. degree.
