Central Michigan University recently became the first public
institution in Michigan to offer a minor in leadership. The minor
focuses on providing in-depth instruction on desired qualities of
leaders, and on the application of such qualities. The minor will
provide students with the courses and experiences necessary to serve as
leaders in their community and professions.
The Leadership minor is a 24-credit-hour interdisciplinary program that
includes both theoretical and experiential components. The major
objective of the program is to educate students for and about leadership
and prepare them to acquire leadership positions in their community and
profession. The minor complements a wide variety of academic programs
such as: health professions, business, political science, recreation,
parks and leisure services, military science, communication, and
education.
