Southern Oregon University’s Innovation and Leadership (INL) program has made a significant impact on the local community since its inception in 2015. Designed to cater to working professionals, the program offers a flexible, interdisciplinary curriculum that equips students with the skills necessary to excel in leadership roles.
A Community-Focused Approach
One of the defining features of the INL program is its emphasis on community engagement. Students are encouraged to apply their learning to real-world challenges, often collaborating with local businesses, organizations, and government agencies. This hands-on approach not only benefits the community but also provides students with valuable professional experience.
