Leadership
The leadership minor provides an opportunity for students to strengthen their abilities to lead and contribute effectively in both the public and private spheres, especially within the Alaskan economy. This program is interdisciplinary and leverages cross-campus training in leadership to enable students to lead from their areas of interest.
