Institute for Leadership Studies

The Institute for Leadership Studies fosters effective, caring leaders committed to service, civic engagement and global citizenship. Our goal is to help our students lead examined and full lives in their service to others.

Outside of the classroom, education for leadership involves hands-on experimental learning, which gives students the opportunity to apply their classroom knowledge of theories and concepts in leadership studies in a real-world settings through internships, fellowship programs, research sponsorships, mentoring relationships, and other services. We attempt to give students the tools that will empower them to serve their communities with skill and compassion.
