February 19, 2021

Last week, the UBC’s Professional Leadership Master’s Degree students confirmed their 2021 Student Executive Committee.

The Student Executive Committee plays an important role throughout the university experience of MEL and MHLP students. They act as the voice and leaders of the cohort, spearheading various professional and social activities, and providing feedback to the MEL and MHLP faculty and staff.

Throughout the election process, all the nominees displayed great enthusiasm and put forward impressive initiatives. The election took place after a virtual forum, wherein the candidates shared speeches and provided proposals for their plans as committee members.
