Leadership

Getting involved in leadership opportunities on campus will:

  • Enable you to develop comprehensive leadership skills that will contribute to your personal and professional development.
  • Allow you to meet fellow student leaders, and network with on-campus partners.
  • Provide you with an understanding of civic engagement and citizenship.
  • Be noted on your university transcript through the co-curricular record.
The University of Manitoba hopes to provide an exceptional student experience by continuing to offer more opportunities for our students to learn, thrive, grow and be celebrated for their personal contributions.
