Our leadership program educates and prepares students using an interdisciplinary approach to study and practice leadership and followership theory.
Our vision is to contribute to a pluralistic society by preparing engaged citizens who understand the ethical implications of leadership and, in collaboration with others, create positive change.
Our interdisciplinary minor is designed to complement any degree path. Choose from a variety of engaging courses that fulfill the elective requirements for many majors.
Our guiding principles are centered on the belief that all people can create positive change through leadership, followership, ethical behavior, and self-reflection.
Through engaging courses and mentorship, our faculty emphasize experiential learning and critical thinking to prepare students to lead with purpose in a complex world.
The Leadership Studies curriculum will expose you to leadership theory, models of followership and team development. In addition, you will learn about the ethical challenges of leading and following while examining the contextual aspects of leadership. We invite you to share your insights and explore the complexities of leadership in a highly conversational and dynamic setting.
