Pavlis Curriculum

The curriculum for the Pavlis program involves meeting and interacting with leaders in their fields, experiential learning opportunities, and coursework in communication, ethics and travel-related preparation. Through interactions with those in positions of leadership, students gain insight into how others successfully lead in a variety of different organizations. Students are given many opportunities to lead and develop projects that they plan and implement on campus, in the community and abroad during the summer experience. Training in effective communication skills, both oral and written, is a vital leadership skill and is an integral part of the program.
