COSSA
COSSA, Council of Science Student Association, are a collection of science student groups which include departmental and program associations and other science related student groups. This is a valuable way for ISSS to receive guidance how to better represent science students and the groups which they are part of
Get the most out of your University of Alberta Science education by getting involved with your fellow students. Joining clubs help you learn to work in groups, develop leadership skills, and allows you to learn from other students.
As a science student, you have many opportunities to learn, grow, and discover new areas of interest. For starter, the time you invest in finding the group that’s right for you is well worth it. Or check out BearsDen, to find any other clubs, groups at University of Alberta.

P.S. Warren Undergraduate Geological Society
The P.S. Warren Geological Society is an undergraduate society at the University of Alberta not only for Geology Specialization/Honors students but students with an interest in the world of geology and those who wish they were in geology, as well as other EAS majors. Throughout the year, we organize various networking and socializing events, such as “geo-mixers”, a Halloween party, the Christmas banquet (in conjunction with ATLAS, the geo grad students), and St. Patty’s Day! We’ll also be organizing trips to conferences (and hopefully some field ones too). Many Students will also attend Mineral Roundup in Vancouver, the Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada conference, and the Western Inter-University Geosciences Conference. Students should consider attending all conferences as they are great networking opportunities, and am awesome way to meet potential employers. We also organize sports teams and events. Sign-up for sports teams is in the common room (Tory 3-87). And who can forget about grad?! We have a separate Grad Committee that is in charge of organizing everything for this great milestone in our university careers. This year, the graduation banquet and ceremony will be held on the same day as the APEGA Earth Ring Ceremony. Fundraising for this very expensive day will be going on year-round, so keep reading about upcoming barbecues, bake sales, and nights out on the town!
