Office of Student Affairs

Home ยป Campus Life at DMU ยป Office of Student Affairs

The Office of Student Affairs works proactively to help Des Moines University Medicine and Health Sciences students shape their experiences outside the classroom while navigating their academic responsibilities. We challenge, support and educate students through social, professional and personal development from orientation through Commencement.

Student Affairs advises student clubs, special interest groupsย and our three student government associations with faculty and staff involvement to ensure all students are getting the most from their experiences here in Des Moines, out on rotations, or attending classes through our online programs.ย  Whether it is overseeing new student orientations, DMUโ€™s spring ย Commencement ceremony, providing leadership opportunities, coordinating student health insurance, promoting and enforcing the Student Code of Conduct, overseeing campuswide programming and community outreach through service, or providing support and guidance to the SGA Advisory Council, we are here to serve all DMU students.

94%

of students said they gained knowledge and skills they wouldnโ€™t otherwise haveย through co-curricular student club activities.

37%

of students attend three or more student club activities.

Never hesitate to visit ourย offices located within the Student Resources suite on the second floor of the Edge of Advancement building, shouldย you have anyย questions or would like to chat over a cup of coffee.
