Mission

"The DVM committee is here to help the DVMers get the most out of their university experience. Whether you'd like to get involved or you have any ideas, we would love to hear from you."

Overview

This student committee commenced in Fall of 2010 as a club of the Student Federation of the University of Ottawa (SFUO). The committee later became a component of the Political, International and Development Studies Student Association (PIDSSA). After the dissolution of PIDSSA in 2014, it became a part of the new student association representing International Development and Globalization students

The DVM Student Committee aims to enhance the undergraduate student experience in the International Development and Globalization program while building community and getting students excited about global challenges. 

The Committee has regular meetings and social events where students can suggest program improvements, discuss development-related topics, share experiences, plan events, and make new friends. If you want to get involved and meet other DVM students, plan DVM events and have the chance to shape the future of the DVM program, the DVM Student Committee is the best place to do it! Come and share your talents and ideas with us! Students of all years welcome!!
