SER’s Student Association Program provides an opportunity for students interested in ecological restoration and related fields to become involved in SER’s global network, participate in SER conferences and events, and take advantage of SER resources.

Organized and run entirely by the students themselves, student associations can be formed at any accredited academic institution, and provide a means for those students interested in pursuing a career in some facet of ecological restoration to come together in a like-minded group. The program was established in 2007 and is developing the next generation of leaders dedicated to researching and practicing ecological restoration.

How to join an existing student association:
If you are a student enrolled at a university with an active SER Student Association, you may eligible to receive full member benefits through your club. Contact Member Services or your student club for the invitation url to create your SER account.
