The Nursing Society aims to enrich the lives of nursing students professionally, academically, and socially. It plays a vital role in communication to nursing students across all nursing programs and years.

• Act as a channel of communication to the Nursing Faculty.
• Address issues and concerns that affect nursing students.
• Organize social and educational activities, including hosting guest speakers.
• Promote interest and participation on campus and in professional activities.
• Offer volunteer opportunities that positively impact RDP and the Central Alberta region.
• Support committees that organize events and celebrations, such as graduations.
• Involvement in national level organizations, including the Canadian Nursing Students’ Association.
• Act as a liaison between other Nursing Student Associations.

All nursing students are encouraged to become involved in any way that is comfortable. Email is checked on a regular basis at [email protected] and participation is always welcome!

Ashley Larsen, President

Hi! I’m Ashley and I’m in my final year of the BA Psychology program and currently applying to grad schools for next year. I’m excited to lead the Psyc Society this year and create some informative and fun events for our members. I hope to create a welcoming environment within the Psyc Society where students feel comfortable reaching out for help, mentorship, or even just a friendly chat. Outside of school, I enjoy traveling, surfing, and hanging out with my dog

 

Amalia Uliniuc, Vice President

Hi! My name is Amalia, and I am a 4th-year BA psychology student. Throughout my academic career, I’ve had the amazing opportunity to complete an Applied Studies course under the expert guidance of Dr. Reiko Yeap, where I applied classroom knowledge to my work as an Employment Consultant. Currently, I am undergoing an independent research study supervised by Dr. Jamie Prowse-Turner, hoping to contribute to the field of psychology. As my ultimate goal, I aspire to become an accomplished Industrial Psychologist, where I can implement evidence-based practices that promote employee engagement, work-life balance, and organizational effectiveness. Outside of school, I take every opportunity to explore national parks and enjoy the outdoors.

Stay tuned in on our social media for updates on presentations and future events!
