The University of Michigan-Dearborn Emerging Leaders Program offers cooperative education/internship senior students a unique opportunity to develop personal leadership knowledge and skills. Building on a variety of leadership concepts, students are given the opportunity to meet with community leaders, work in small teams and develop personal leadership skills to help them launch their careers upon graduation. The program culminates with a Leadership Summit where we will invite community leaders to come to campus and share their perspectives of leadership with a larger community.

There are five (5) three hour sessions during fall 2008 semester that run from 11:00 AM until 2:00 PM on five Fridays. The sessions are three weeks apart with the final Leadership Summit scheduled two weeks after the final session. The Leadership Summit is to be held on December 19th, from 11:00 AM until 2 PM. All meeting will be in 1410 PEC.

By actively participating in the program, students will gain a deeper understanding of:
 * 1) Personal sense of empowerment
 * 2) Self confidence and accepting the consequences of their personal choices
 * 3) Networking with professional leaders
 * 4) Selling themselves and the concept of personal branding
 * 5) Ethics
 * 6) Global awareness
 * 7) Communication skills
 * 8) Career planning and development
 * 9) Expectations of young professional
 * 10) Team Building

A Certificate of Merit is awarded upon successful completion of the Emerging Leaders Program.
