About

Student Involvement & Leadership, often referred to as SIL, recognizes that our students at UAB come from all different backgrounds and have interests and passions that are as unique and exciting as our students are.

SIL supports hundreds of student organizations and activities for a wide variety of interest. Through our engagement with students, we have the opportunity to watch as they progress academically, discover their values, develop their identity and realize their full potential. This is achieved through advising students and student organizations; creating innovative leadership opportunities and promoting involvement in the campus community. Student Involvement and Leadership values and encourages all forms of leadership to cultivate an inclusive, socially responsible, and vibrant campus community.
