Students for MEDLIFE

Members Benefits

Membership in MEDLIFE at the University of Dayton offers students meaningful opportunities for service, leadership, and professional growth. Members participate in local service projects and international Service Learning Trips, gaining hands-on experience in global and public health through mobile clinics and community development initiatives. They also learn about health disparities and social determinants of health through direct involvement. Students can take on leadership roles, help shape the chapter’s direction, and build skills in event planning, fundraising, and teamwork. Members benefit from networking with healthcare professionals and other MEDLIFE chapters, and have access to mentorship and career-building resources. Educational events, such as workshops and speaker series, support advocacy and awareness of global health equity. Involvement is recognized with official service and leadership certificates, helping strengthen resumes and graduate school applications. Most importantly, MEDLIFE members join a welcoming, mission-driven community committed to dignity, equity, and sustainable change.
