This Certificate provides students with interdisciplinary and experiential learning opportunities that enhance their leadership capabilities through foundational skills development, specialized training, and community service. This includes a rigorous academic framework that balances both theory and practice, and a curriculum that challenges students to think critically about their place in the world and how they can affect change around them. Students also develop professional skills that are highly desirable for the pursuit of graduate studies, professional programs, and gainful employment.
