Hesselbein Global Academy for Student Leadership and Civic Engagement
The University of Pittsburgh has launched a new initiative called the Hesselbein Global Academy for Student Leadership and Civic Engagement (http://www.hesselbein.pitt.edu). While the academy is housed at the University of Pittsburgh, it is open to students throughout the world. The academy aims to inspire, develop, and reward accomplished student leaders to meet the challenges of tomorrow.
A core program of the academy is the Hesselbein Student Leadership Summit. Fifty students are selected to receive advanced leadership training from professional mentors who have expertise in various fields. Another noteworthy feature of this program is that there is little expense to the student and/or the university. The academy covers the cost of room, board, registration, and provides $200 in travel assistance.
Our online application is currently open for the student leadership summit this July 11-14th. Contact Angela, if you have any other questions: angelamm@pitt.edu or 412-624-5203.
