Student Organizations

Student organizations provide an many opportunities for students. By working in student organizations, students gain experience in working in and leading groups, planning activities, and evaluating the results. Most student organizations also provide links to similar adult organizations. There are currently two student organizations active at the School of Packaging: the MSU Packaging Society and the Packaging Graduate Association.

As the MSU Packaging Society (MSUPS), at Michigan State University, we aim to provide a platform for companies to network and engage with students within the School of Packaging at Michigan State University. Our goal is to give companies and passionate individuals the opportunity to present about their presence and impact within the industry while also making meaningful connections with our students.

We typically meet every other Tuesday and host a variety of companies to show students the vast opportunities available within the packaging industry, as well as put on various social and networking events for students to connect with industry and their peers. MSUPS offers an excellent opportunity for students to further develop their professional network and fosters an exciting environment for companies and industry professionals to connect with Michigan State Packaging students.
