The PPE Undergraduate Advisory Board is a committee of student representatives that serves to enhance the PPE major. It is a forum through which PPE students can share their concerns and hopes regarding the major with fellow PPE majors as well as the PPE Program. Board members serve as chief liaisons between PPE majors and the PPE Program, frequently offering and receiving recommendations in both directions. Prospective PPE majors seeking the perspective of a peer may contact the board at [email protected]. Find out more about our UAB through the link in our bio!
