Leadership Opportunities at MSU
The university’s emerging Global Leadership Continuum provides “cradle-to-CEO” programming designed to develop leadership potential across a “global“ spectrum that begins with high school and continues throughout the university experience and into professional life. Additional programs will involve athletes, graduate students, and international students.
All aspects of the Leadership Continuum are founded on the core principles of integrity, excellence, and courage - values that define Mississippi State’s commitment to the public it serves.
Day One Leadership Community (Freshmen)
A co-residential program that focuses on shared academic and service experiences, including a Leadership Forum taught by a group of Mississippi State University’s teachers and special guest speakers.
Appalachian Leadership Honors Program (Sophomores and Juniors)
A two-year program for current students that exhibit recognized academic, leadership, and character traits. They are engaged in a variety of service and leadership activities designed to build communication skills, technical excellence, strategic analysis, project management abilities, and community involvement.
Global Leadership Program (International students)
The Global Leadership Program mission is to prepare students from around the globe to be more effective in their personal, academic, professional, and global endeavors. Applying the universal elements of leadership-strategy, vision, mission, communication, and accountability-in a multicultural environment will place new demands on the next generation of leaders. GLP will provide the foundation for those leaders to be successful in a global environment.
