The Center for Leadership Studies

Leadership development is an increasingly important aspect of a college education. The ability to exercise leadership knowledge and skills in diverse settings is highly valued by students and employers.

The Center for Leadership Studies seeks to provide students with opportunities to develop leadership skills in an ethical framework through course work in leadership and ethics, through interaction with successful leaders, through campus leadership roles, and through student chapters of professional organizations.

The center coordinates all leadership programs across campus. It supports undergraduate and graduate academic research in leadership, and the continued development of executive education and management training programs in leadership. The center also raises funds for scholarships, professorships, and programs in leadership.
