Minor in Global Engagement & Leadership

Program Overview

Global Engagement and Leadership is a program dedicated to interdisciplinary inquiry that weds general education with a minor. With its emphasis on real-world problem solving, the program provides the ideal avenue for students to hone their intellectual skills and apply their education beyond the classroom. The coursework invites students to explore ideas beyond the boundaries of traditional curriculum and to engage in a scholarly conversation with the broad university community. Students who complete the minor should truly be life-long learners who view themselves as global citizens.

The program is highly customizable, and lets its students pick classes from a wide array of disciplines and areas of study. This gives our students the ability to draw on knowledge and skills across multiple disciplines, practice critical and creative thinking, and pursue intercultural knowledge and competence.
