UM Provides Leadership Development Opportunities for Students

The University of Montana is offering a new student leadership program to provide students with the skills they need to succeed academically and professionally after graduation.

Ursa Major is a four-stage leadership development experience that uses a variety of co-curricular activities to teach students independence, ambition, creative problem-solving, motivational ability and self-assessment. Activities include conferences, retreats, volunteer opportunities and mentoring.

The program is open to current UM students. Applications are available online at http://www.umt.edu/ursamajor. Additional program information also is available on the Web site, or by e-mailing [email protected].
