CALS Global is excited to be hosting their Global Student Leaders Program again in Spring 2026! 

This program brings together undergraduate students from across disciplines who want to tackle real-world challenges through collaboration, creativity, and leadership.

Along the way, students build the skills and networks that set them apart as future leaders, with the potential for selection to CALS Global international experiences and innovation opportunities.
