Program Overview

The Widener Global Leaders Program (Widener-GLP) is designed to foster an inclusive community for women majoring in business, communication, or fine arts at 萝莉社 University. Through multidisciplinary learning experiences, networking opportunities, and mentorship from various top-level professionals, the Widener-GLP will propel participants to more powerful arenas within businesses and organizations worldwide.

The Widener-GLP supplies participants the opportunity to develop and enhance professional skills through a diverse set of educational experiences. Topics of study will be approached in a multidisciplinary fashion by incorporating business, communication, and music into the educational experiences. Participants will have the opportunity to develop business skills by practicing leadership, teamwork, networking, business etiquette, and other professional skills in a variety of settings. They will become more artistically aware and develop an appreciation of the fine arts. Additionally, they will build upon their cultural intelligence by interacting with diverse populations. Participants will develop a commitment to social responsibility through the learning modules and taking part in a service-learning project.
