The Indian Graduate Student Association is a non-profit (student) organization committed to cater to the needs and concerns of Indian graduate students and provide an accessible platform to present their identity within the international community at the University of Florida (UF).
IGSA promotes the smooth assimilation of Indian graduate students, primarily of international student status into the UF environment and local Gainesville community. The organization works toward maintaining and nurturing unity among students of all nationalities by celebrating events and learning from the rich cultural diversity on campus. In addition, it co-ordinates with other organizations in events of mutual goals and interest. The organization displays the Indian culture and heritage to the International community through cultural events, festivals and other recreational activities. It actively participates in welcoming the new students and conducting orientation sessions to introduce them to the American way of living. It also serves as a medium for networking with other graduate students and alumni. We also try to collaborate with other organizations to help in the development of the local Gainesville community.
Above all, we strive to serve as a home away from home for the students and create a positive impact.
