Programs and events
In addition to advising student councils, Campus Life also oversees campus wide programs for students.
FIU in DC Fly In
Campus Life in partnership with the FIU in DC Office created and organized a three-day, fast-paced dynamic learning experience for World’s Ahead DC Fly In students twice a year. Each semester (Fall and Spring) – 10- 15 students will travel to DC to experience think tanks, meet with representatives of the Senate and House, interview at possible internship sites, as well as learn about advocacy and communications. This program is to help students learn more about DC and the FIU in DC Office as well as learn about the endless possibilities DC has to offer.
Life Skills Series
The Life Skills Series is a program consisting of workshops on various skills and subject matter that will help to prepare the student for life during and after college. Topics range from things like time management and financial literacy to more hands on skills like how to tie a tie or cook a simple meal. Workshops are offered throughout the year as in-person, virtual, and/or hybrid programs.
Summerfest
SummerFest is FIU’s largest student programming event of the summer. A 4 hour concert with DJs and artists, SummerFest brings students together in an exciting atmosphere for engagement and to discover all that Campus Life has to offer.
