The UST Masters of International Leadership program provides a rigorous academic experience with an emphasis on becoming globally positioned leaders. UST has given me unique opportunities to become acquainted with globally positioned leadership by immersing myself in leadership styles and techniques, public policy, economic growth, business strategies, and international relations. Academically, my research and studies have allowed me to gain unique perspectives of governance, health care, and economic outlooks for identifying how countries operate at different levels, impacting social, economic, and political development. Particularly, these courses helped me distinguish various aspects of development in both the private and public sector, while focusing on striving for the common good. Most notably, UST has taken me to Washington D.C. and even Brazil where I gained first hand experiences on what it means to be a globally positioned leader in today's world.
