The NYU Dentistry Student Leadership Track
Exploring Leadership through Theory and Practice
The Office of Student Affairs & Academic Support Services is dedicated to providing students at the NYU College of Dentistry with intensive leadership training through a series of interactive workshops called The NYU Dentistry Student Leadership Track.
This program seeks to equip dental students with the skills, tools, and leadership capacities to effectively lead their peers today, and the dental community into the future.
Deriving from the Leadership Capacities and Competencies developed by the NYU Leadership Initiative, the NYU Dentistry Student Leadership Track will provide students the opportunity to explore personal strengths, think critically about how to lead others, develop techniques to facilitate interpersonal collaboration, and proactively envision and articulate a new future for the dentistry profession.
The NYU Dentistry Student Leadership Track culminates in an opportunity for students to apply for the three-day off-site Leadership Retreat focused on advanced leadership theory and application. This leadership intensive challenges students through individual reflection and explores the impacts of leadership on the dentistry profession.
This semester, join us for a four-part lecture series that will explore three main topical areas of leadership study: Speaking, Writing and Listening. Heralded by NYU Dentistry Dean Charles Bertolami, each lecture will be paired with a workshop in order to provide students the safe space to practice and explore their leadership abilities in these areas. Each workshop will be offered three times in order to provide all students the opportunity to participate.
Below is the schedule for the Fall 2015 semester.
