Applied Human Sciences Ambassadors

The mission of the AHS Ambassador program is to promote the Department of Applied Human Sciences to alumni, friends, prospective students (and their families), and to engage current K-State students. Ambassadors represent the Department of Applied Human Sciences during School, College, and University-wide recruitment events on and off-campus and provide a voice to current students enrolled in the School.

The Applied Human Sciences department is committed to making sure that regardless of what is going on in the world our students will have an enriching, educational, and joyful college experience. Our ambassadors are students just like you with an understanding of the exciting and sometimes nerve-wracking nature of the college experience and are here to help you navigate your own. If you would like to contact an ambassador for guidance about the department of AHS, send an email (listed with descriptions below) and we will be happy to set up an in person or zoom meeting with you!
