About Us

Welcome to the Division for Student Engagement and Impact for VCU's Health Sciences campus. DSEI is composed of VCU P.A.T.H.S. and the Office of Student Engagement (formerly the Office of Student Experience), both in alignment with the Office of Health Sciences. The division aims to enhance students' overall experiences as they prepare for admissions into and throughout their enrollment in a health sciences or health professions program at VCU. Student success is our primary goal, which we strive to achieve by providing social and academic support, offering student involvement and leadership opportunities, as well as connecting students with a vast network of professional and community partners across the healthcare landscape.
