The School of Public Policy Launches New Minor in Public Leadership

Sponsored by the School of Public Policy, the Public Leadership Minor will allow students to examine pressing issues, such as the global environment, human rights, diversity, and poverty, that are facing today’s leaders. This minor provides students with a foundation of leadership development, from understanding leadership theories to enhancing their own critical thinking, community organizing, and problem solving skills. The Public Leadership Minor will complement any major on campus, while empowering students to become stronger citizens and leaders.
