Emerging Leaders Applications Now Open

The Emerging Leaders program is an exciting and engaging leadership introductory and development program designed for first-year students and others seeking to develop their leadership skills. This six-week program provides students a chance to meet new people, explore new ideas, and become more involved in university-wide leadership opportunities including student government, student organization officer positions, residence hall leadership, and student mentor positions.

  • Leadership Foundations 
  • Diversity, Ethics, & Leadership
  • Communication, Conflict, & Leadership
  • Professionalism & Leadership Application
