Find a Student Organization

There are over 1,400 student organizations at Ohio State and over half of all students join a student organization. Students who choose to get involved achieve many positive outcomes - leadership skills, better grades, friendships and mentors, and make a big campus seem small. Use the tools below to search for, find, and get involved with student organizations.

You can also connect with many of our student organizations at our Student Involvement Fairs in August and January. Check out the Student Involvement Fairs webpage for the latest information.

For individualized assistance find the student organization that's right for you, schedule a Get Involved Consultation. These 30-minute meetings will provide a personalized list of recommendations based on your interests and aspirations.

Please consult this list of student organizations with revoked registration as of Spring 2024. Some organizations continue to operate after their registration has been revoked despite the action taken by the university. We encourage you to review an organization’s status before becoming involved with it, especially because sometimes an organization’s status is revoked due to serious concerns like hazing and other behavior that risks your health and safety.

Family Medicine Point-of-Care Ultrasound

Campus: Columbus
Status: Active - New/Re-Established II
Purpose Statement: The specialty of family medicine has a wide breadth intended to provide comprehensive care to all body systems of patients of all ages, in all ranges of severity. As a field uniquely positioned to appreciate the needs of the whole person and community, family medicine is rapidly increasing its use of ultrasound as a means of portable, quick, easy-to-teach imaging that provides information to make diagnostic and therapeutic decisions. Our organization brings together learners of ultrasound of all stages and skill levels, including undergraduate, professional/graduate students with resident and attending faculty and practicing physicians. We recognize the importance of a learning pipeline in providing a better future for family medicine patients, and keep in mind the possible use of ultrasound in an outpatient/non-hospital setting, and resource-poor settings. We intend to increase competence and expand knowledge through lectures, hands-on teaching sessions, pretend-patient events requiring ultrasound, and journal clubs. Scans of interest will include abdominal aneurysm screens, ruling out a leg clot, examining the heart and lungs, finding fluid in a trauma, judging fluid build-up in kidneys, thyroid nodules/size, joint injections and exams, pregnancy and mass exams, gallbladder exams, and procedural guidance, with a significantly greater emphasis on non-emergent scanning.
