Academic Student Organizations

The Portland Campus for the Health Sciences’ Graduate and Professional Student Association offers many opportunities to solidify your bond with others in your department or college through academic and professional student organizations.

Graduate and Professional Student Association

The Graduate and Professional Student Association (GAPSA), on the Portland Campus of the University of New England, is a student-run governance organization serving graduate and professional students and student organizations in the Westbrook College of Health Professions and the College of Dental Medicine.

Three Primary Purposes of GAPSA

  1. Promote and foster professional development and collaboration between the various student and academic organizations (as an extension of the Center to Advance Interprofessional Education and Practice).
  2. Advocate and communicate on issues of importance to graduate and professional students.
  3. Provide programming to meet the needs of graduate and professional students.

UNE’s Graduate and Professional Student Association is a member of the National Association of Graduate-Professional Students (NAGPS).
