The OTEAM is an undergraduate student leadership group dedicated to engaging new students and families as they attend orientation and begin classes at IUPUI. During the summer, OTEAM leaders serve as orientation leaders and introduce the campus to more than 5,000 students and 2,500 family members who are new to IUPUI. In the fall, OTEAM participate in first-year seminars, including Summer Bridge and Themed Learning Community sections, as a peer mentor. These students serve as advocates for the interests, needs, and rights of first-year students.
