The program seeks to inspire the participants to utilize their new skills in order to make meaningful contributions to their society.

Course & Activities F2719: Women and Leadership Learn to analyze the roles, responsibilities, and expectations of women in leadership positions. You’ll examine cultural issues and trends from historical, sociological, political, and ethical perspectives. Why does women’s leadership matter?

How are how issues relating to women and leadership similar and/or different across cultures? How are innovation and creativity tools for women and leadership? ​This course is taught in English and fully accredited.

Most students are able to transfer credit from the program as long as arrangements are made in advance with their home university.

The course has a minimum of 45 contact hours and is worth 3 US semester credits or 6 ECTS (European system) credits.
