A new Leadership Minor is launching this fall! This minor was designed to be interdisciplinary, and accessible to students across campus interested in developing leadership competencies influenced by their values, strengths, academic interests, career goals, and engagement in and out of the classroom. While the minor is open to all students, we especially want to encourage first and second year students to engage early with the minor.
First course in the minor – 15 seats remaining!
If you are interested, please enroll in “Learning Leadership in Theory and Practice” (LEAD 100) in Autumn Quarter 2021. Students are encouraged to take this course within the first two years at the University of Washington.
