Student Clubs
Long Beach City College has a number of opportunities for you to get connected. Joining a club or organization will provide you the opportunity to make new friends, develop leadership skills, and contribute to LBCC and the community. Utilize the connections you will make within these clubs and organizations to help you plan your future, network and build lifelong friendships.
With your College Service sticker, you are eligible to join a club and participate in their activities held each week. There are a number of resources available to club members including advising, mentoring, leadership development, volunteer opportunities, grants, scholarships and much more! And if you don’t find a club that catches your attention, start one!
Viking Engagement is your one-stop shop for all things Clubs and Organizations. This online portal is designed to help student group and organizations collaborate and community, as well as a way for students to learn more about clubs and events at LBCC.
Intramural & Recreational Sports
It is the aim of Intramural and Recreational Sports to provide an opportunity for each LBCC student to participate in his or her favorite competitive sport. We promote wellness and healthy lifestyle choices for the LBCC community by providing opportunities to engage in athletic and fitness activities.
Leadership Programs
Your “out of the classroom learning” is an important aspect of your college life. Participation in leadership will help you understand your role in group settings, help develop abilities for others to follow, and prepare you to act responsibly in a diversity of situations. Having leadership skills looks great on your resume and helps you stand out from other competitors in the job market, but there are life-long friendships to be made, practical skills to develop, and people to be served through your involvement. These are the skills that add quality and balance to your life not only now, but in life after college. Whether it’s finding your place on your college campus, or developing your future leadership potential, Office of Student Life leadership programs are designed to help YOU become the person you were meant to be.
