Women's Leadership Information

The mission of the Mount St. Mary's College Women's Leadership Program is to prepare students for participation and leadership in our local and global communities. The Women's Leadership Program helps students develop leadership skills through co-curricular activities, as well as workshops, internships, and participation in national conferences.

Women’s Leadership is founded upon the relational model of leadership, defining leadership as the process of people working together to accomplish change and make a difference for the common good.
