The FASE Minor in Global Leadership is part of U of T’s first tri-campus, interdivisional, multidisciplinary undergraduate program. The Minor is distinguished by its critical and multidisciplinary focus on leadership in a global context. This is combined with an emphasis on developing knowledge of global issues within an engineering framework and how engineers can influence and improve conditions around the world. All undergraduate Engineering students are eligible to participate in this minor course of study, however enrollment is limited. This minor consists of 4.0 FCE, similar to minors from the Faculty of Arts & Science.
Limited Enrolment — Enrolment in this program is limited. Students must follow the appropriate application procedures in the year preceding enrolment. The first application period will be in Spring 2023. A link to the application details will be available at www.minors.engineering.utoronto.ca.
