The International Studies Student Association (ISSA) is a departmental student association committed to promoting the interdisciplinary study of International Studies at Simon Fraser University, and to represent the interests of IS students. Any student who is a declared major, joint major, minor, or honours in History is considered a member of the ISSA. Any student who is intending to declare for one of these programs and any student enrolled in an IS class is also a member of the IS. Our purpose is to promote engagement among IS students through our academic and social events and reach out to IS students to encourage participation in the ISSA. Throughout the year we put on a variety of events including, but not limited to, fall and spring socials, career events, launches of our Confluence Journal, and more!
