Omega Chapter at BYU

The Omega Chapter at Brigham Young University has the advantage of being a part of a university community with a broad array of international experience. Of the 30,000+ students on campus, about half have advanced ability in a foreign language, most through experience in foreign countries. Students come from all fifty states and from over 100 foreign countries. The university provides instruction in over sixty foreign languages.

Building on the great talent and experience of the student body, the Omega Chapter strives to enhance the education and experiences of its members as they prepare for their careers both at home and abroad. Activities and lectures are held to help students obtain a greater understanding of global issues and to build relationships with their peers and professors.
