Center for Ethical and Socially Responsible Leadership

Who We Are

Launched in February 2022, the Center for Ethical and Socially Responsible Leadership’s mission is to create, curate and nurture curricular content and co-curricular experiences that lay a strong foundation from which students develop a deep understanding of ethical conduct and socially responsible decision making.

The center will support research and scholarship that bridges theory and practice in ethics and social responsibility and establishes Broad College faculty as thought leaders on these issues. We will offer student-centered programming that complements what they are learning in the classroom so our students leave Michigan State University with a broader and deeper understanding of how they can be socially responsible and ethical leaders in their chosen field.
