Future leaders committed to learning

14 December 2005

Forty students have been selected to be part of Ancora Imparo, the university's program designed to support and inspire tomorrow's leaders.

Arts student Ms Emily Greco is looking forward to a bright future.

The program will run for the first time in 2006.

Vice-Chancellor Professor Richard Larkins described it as a flagship program of the university.

"Ancora Imparo's objective is to inspire and develop the capacity of students with leadership potential to serve and bring about constructive change in society," he said.

At the end of each year, 40 first-year students will be chosen from Monash's Australian campuses to participate in the program during their second year of studies.

The program includes a three-day residential course before the first semester of the students' second year and monthly seminars throughout their Ancora Imparo year. Many of the seminars will be led by distinguished Australian leaders -- especially Monash alumni.
