The voice of undergraduate students at Baruch. Through USG, students have the opportunity to advocate for the student body, shape campus initiatives, and support student clubs and organizations. Getting involved in student government is a great way to build leadership experience, stay informed about what’s happening on campus, and play an active role in the Baruch community.
Lawrence N. Field Center for Entrepreneurship

Whether you already have a business idea or are just curious about entrepreneurship, the Center offers workshops, events, mentorship, and resources to help you explore and develop your interests. It’s a great way to connect with other motivated students, learn from industry professionals, and learn how to take an idea from concept to reality.
New Student Programs (NSP)
The Office of New Student Programs offers leadership opportunities for students who want to play an active role in welcoming and supporting New Bearcats. Through roles like Orientation Leader and Peer Mentor, students help guide incoming first-year and transfer students as they begin their college journey. In these roles, students build communication skills, develop confidence, support peers through transition, and learn to work as part of a team. NSP often becomes a home away from home – a close-knit community of student leaders. It’s a chance to gain hands-on leadership experience, connect with Baruch community, and make a meaningful impact on new students. Check the Join Our Team page for more information.
