The African Graduate Students Association at Northeastern University is dedicated to empowering African graduate students, and their allies, and enhancing their educational and personal experiences. Our purpose revolves around six core themes: community building, professional development, advocacy, global engagement, leadership empowerment, and cultural integration. Through these focused areas, we aim to support our members in achieving their academic and career goals, advocate for their needs, celebrate the rich diversity of African cultures, and foster a sense of unity within the university and beyond. The organization welcomes all students who are interested in its mission.
