The Data Science Club’s mission is to provide students with an opportunity to learn about data science algorithms and methodologies by applying knowledge and designing systems to solve specific problems. The club would focus primarily on building team based projects, each of which would take place over the course of one or two semesters. Each project would be composed of project lead(s) and other members to carry out the development. Project leads are experienced students who are able to mentor students, guide the design process, and provide support to newer members. An example of these projects would be building software able to detect human poses in video feeds using machine learning techniques. In addition to projects, members of the club would form small teams and enter data science competitions such Google’s Landmark Retrieval Competition. To further promote learning, we plan to host technical workshops for members and inform them about upcoming conferences and meetups. We also plan to host panels and Q&A sessions with people in the industry. By providing these avenues of learning about data science for students, we plan to improve the educational lives of students and prepare them for positions in academia or in industry.

ABOUT THE CLUB:

The AMS Paint Club aims to build a community of artists! We encourage everyone who loves art or wants to build their skills to join our club, whether they are curious beginners or seasoned professionals! From charcoal to acrylic, we value all types of art forms.

When operating normally, we hold in-person art sessions where students gather to hone their skills, give support and advice, and to just relax and make some art together! The AMS Paint Club also aims to provide its members with art kits as part of the membership (watercolor paints, acrylics, etc). We also organize various events and workshops throughout the terms. Alongside in-person workshops, we also host virtual workshops to help our members build new art skills. We look forward to expanding our events and workshops for some really creative and fun times to come!

Mission
We are the very first Pilates Club at UBC that aims to improve the physical lives of the students at UBC in a safe, fun, and effective way. Although our club will operate as a general pilates club, we are currently only offering POP Pilates classes. While POP Pilates moves all originate from classical Pilates, the class design, relationship with music, sequencing and reps, differ from reformer classes and traditional mat classes. The fundamentals of breathing, core engagement and powerhouse-based movements are shared, however, the emphasis on moving to the beat of pop music is what makes POP Pilates so unique. Each 55 minute class is supposed to make students feel like it's a dance on the mat, rather than just a typical exercise. Furthermore, this club will provide a positive and supportive community where students can comfortably exercise in.

The AMS Society at UBC does not contain a club that raises awareness of scoliosis, a condition that causes a curvature of the spine. Scoliosis is prevalent worldwide, can negatively affect the quality of one's life and currently has no known cause. By raising awareness of what scoliosis is and emphasizing the importance of back posture and care, the AMS Scoliosis Outreach and Awareness Club will cultivate unity amongst those students passionate about making a difference for this cause. The main purpose of the club will be to spread scoliosis awareness to the UBC student body and fundraise money to support ongoing scoliosis research in hopes of finding a cause. We will educate both present and future UBC students in how they can support this and other scoliosis campaigns. We want to let ÔÇ£Scoliosis WarriorsÔÇØ throughout the city know that they are not alone and have a dedicated student team at UBC who are actively making a difference.

The AMS Sexual Assault Support Centre (SASC) is located on the unceded, traditional, ancestral, and occupied territories of the h╔Ön╠ôq╠ô╔Ömin╠ô╔Öm╠ô (Halkomelem) speaking x╩Àm╔Ö╬©k╩À╔Öy╠ô╔Öm (Musqueam) nation.
We recognize the inherent connections between colonialism and all forms of violence. Recognizing the violence of ongoing colonization and engaging in decolonial actions is critical to our work as these lands were taken without consent from Indigenous peoples. Further, we recognize one of the ongoing effects of colonization being the disproportionate rate at which Indigenous peoples, particularly women and trans people, face sexualized and racialized violence. Sexualized violence was used, and continues to be used, as a weapon of colonization, and we want to actively and continuously be working to mitigate the harms of colonization in our work.

Since 2002 the SASC has been committed to the education, support, and empowerment of people of all genders who are survivors of sexualized violence as well as their friends and family. We serve UBC students, staff, faculty, and people with a connection to the UBC campus through various resources and services.

AMS members told us loud and clear that having a sustainable student building was important to them, so we made it our priority to build a LEED Platinum-certified building. This, rather ennobling certificate, is an international stamp of excellence in energy and resource-efficient buildings, putting The Nest high up in the ranks of green buildings in North America. Designing the building to have minimal impact on the environment became the solid foundation for us to run a green society and advocate for a greener campus community. From our food and beverage operations to all the initiatives, projects and funds initiated and administered by the AMS Sustainability office, we are always striving to make measurable reductions in our environmental footprint. That's why we implemented a waste recycling program, introduced the Sustainability Projects Fund (SPF), purchase eco-friendly products, use local suppliers where possible, eliminated plastic straws in many of our food outlets, and continue to look for ways to reduce the use of individual-use containers, even recyclable ones.

Our mission is to provide an empowering and intrepid community for female-identifying students at UBC. We wish to create a fun, safe, and respectful environment that encourages, and nurtures health-aligned goals. Numerous factors not limited to intimidation, fear, and uncertainty challenge entry into a healthy and active lifestyle. These challenges can become even more daunting when faced with prejudice against gender, queerness, and religion. Therefore, the purpose of the AMS Women’s Health Club is to provide a safe, accessible space to support, encourage, and hype-up female-identifying students as they pursue their health and fitness-related goals.

We believe in helping every woman learn and develop a healthy lifestyle that aligns with their personal goals to help them live a balanced lifestyle as they take on challenges to reach their fullest personal and professional potential. We aim to bring together and support female-identifying students from all fields of study at UBC to improve our member’s wellness through group fitness classes, networking socials and awareness events.
