With more than 1,000 registered student organizations at Michigan State University, community is everywhere. At the Burgess Institute, we believe community is foundational to becoming a successful entrepreneur. Our student organizations bring together builders, creators, and innovators who are passionate about solving problems, exploring ideas, and supporting one another’s growth.
Whether you are launching a venture, growing your skills, or searching for your people, these student-led communities offer more than involvement. They offer belonging, momentum, and real opportunities to collaborate, test ideas, and grow alongside peers who share the same ambition. This is where Spartans build what’s next, together.
