Today, university graduates need more than an outstanding academic education.  To provide a more fulsome learning experience we want to set University of Calgary students up for success tomorrow, by providing opportunities for leadership growth and development in and out of the classroom. 

We recognize that leadership is demonstrated in many ways - whether involved in a student club, in athletics, volunteering in the community or through pursuing other passions. Therefore, it is our goal that every University of Calgary student graduate with a strong sense of their identity as a leader, and with the skills and passion to effect change in their communities.

To learn more about how to grow as a leader at the University of Calgary and beyond, be sure to explore all of our programs.
