Mission
The mission of the Counseling Psychology Club is to foster the next generation of counselors, therapists, researchers, and mental health professionals, and we plan to do this by stimulating interest in the field of counseling psychology, providing social activities/events for members, and to provide information and resources to aspiring counselors so that they have the connections to get to where they want to be.

Membership Benefits
Once you join the Counseling Psychology Club, you are able to participate in volunteering events that our club may host, which could be making blankets for hospital patients or helping therapy dogs at the Animal Humane Society. These activities provide opportunities to any student (especially those interested in counseling) to help out before they get the merits to actually partake in counseling.
Additionally, you could interact with other club members, who share your interests. Similarly, you will also be participating in other events that focus on the development of counseling knowledge, for example, case analyses, movie analyses, or talks from professionals.
As long as you are a member of the Counseling Psychology club, you will have the opportunity to talk to counselors in depth about their jobs, their insights, and what future counseling jobs are like.
We hope that by starting this club, more students who are interested in counseling psychology have a supportive community where students can interact with each other freely and be able to learn and build connections with each other.

Mission
The Music Therapy Student Association is a student-led group based in the study of music therapy. We strive to further ourselves as aspiring therapists through attending informational meetings, listening to educational speakers, creating performance opportunities for students within the music therapy program, volunteering in the community, pursuing fundraising opportunities to assist with conference fees, and promoting collaboration with and outreach to other student groups on campus.

The main activities of MTSA feature: Educational meetings where guest speakers from the music therapy community come to speak on important issues in the lives of music therapist and music therapy students, community volunteering to give the students hands-on experience early in their education, and networking with other music therapy, music ed, special ed, pre-med, psychology, and students in other related majors.


MTSA's activities benefit the U of M community through the real life experiences provided for the students. Valuable information, important first-hand opportunities and connections in the area of their interest create unique opportunities for MTSA members. MTSA is also of benefit to the U of M by volunteering in the community around the U. This not only gives the U neighborhood valuable assistance but also continues the U of M's reputation as a college that cares for its community.


If anyone is interested in MTSA please contact us at mtsa@umn.edu. We love to meet new people and add students from a variety of majors to our group.

Mission
The NextGen Psych Scholars Program (NPSP) is a graduate student-led mentorship group for undergraduates and interested in applying to psychology Ph.D. programs. While this program is open to all students, regardless of race, ethnicity, national origin, sexual orientation, and gender identity, it will center on the experiences of those from underrepresented (e.g., BIPOC, low-income, first-gen, LGBTQIA+) groups in psychology.

The goal of NPSP is to cultivate long-term support structures between current graduate students and undergraduate or post-baccalaureate mentees to (1) embrace and celebrate the unique journeys that have led current graduate students to pursue a Ph.D. and (2) inspire and empower the next generation of scholars while enhancing feelings of belonging in academia.
