About Us

Special Interest and Community Service Sodality (SICS) has its origins back in mid 2006 where a group of like-minded individuals comprising leaders of the various Special Interests and Community Service clubs – then known as SA clubs – came together with the common vision of putting in place a system to better manage this cluster of clubs which did not fall under the Arts nor Sports arena, and to lend these clubs a greater voice of representation at the Students Association level, so as to provide them with greater operational, financial and administrative support.

​

SICS is the Constituent Student Body (CBd) that represents the diverse interest groups and long-term community service groups in SMU. We have 22 clubs in total to enrich your student life.
