Leadership Programs

Students lead UMKC. The Student Life Office is committed to helping students discover and develop their abilities to lead themselves, their organizations and the University. First-year students can participate in the Emerging Leaders program, an intensive non-credit course exploring theoretical and practical applications of leadership. Under the auspices of the Involvement Challenge, each fall students attend Ropes Courses, challenging themselves to overcome physical and mental obstacles while developing team leadership skills. At advanced levels, students can explore leadership across cultural boundaries in the Multicultural Leadership Workshop, engage key University-level leadership issues with administrators at the Vice Chancellor's Leadership Consortium and put their leadership into practice through service to the Student Government Association and school councils. Finally, the following are programs that enhance students' leadership experience - International Student Leadership Workshop, Graduate Student Leadership Workshop, Noodles at Noon Series and the Outside the Box Series.
