Mu Delta Alpha was founded in 2014 as "Muslimahs for Change". After planting its first seeds at the University of Texas at Dallas, the sorority established its Beta chapter at the University of Texas in Austin, and its Gamma chapter in Denton, Texas, which is a joint venture between the University of North Texas and Texas Women's University. As the first professional Muslim sorority in the United States, Mu Delta Alpha aims to encourage Muslim women to achieve their highest potential in all careers, life stages, and paths, and to expand the image of Muslim women as a positive force in improving their environments, and to demonstrate the value of diversity while holding on to one’s identity. Driven by our core values of professionalism, mutual support, diversity and appreciation for education, we hope to bring together a group of talented and driven Muslim women and help facilitate their path to success.
