WSE 401 - Women’s Leadership in STEM
This course will provide an in-depth examination of the essential components of leadership in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). The course will explore how leadership theory, drawn from the social sciences, applies to real-life situations and challenges in STEM education, industry and policy. Key concepts of leadership will be introduced including: knowledge of organizational structures, culture, power, communication (written, verbal and non-verbal), politics, decision making, problem solving, collaboration, ethics and diversity. Students will apply theory in action by participating in STEM leadership opportunities through mentoring, tutoring, research, and/or service-learning experiences at the university, local communities, and/or industry internships.
