Leadership

The Cornell Global Development club is lead by a mixed undergraduate and graduate executive board consisting of 5 committees and a leadership team of graduate and undergraduate students. The leadership team consists of a Graduate Executive Director, an Undergraduate President and an Undergraduate Vice-President.To find out more about the committees please click here.

Currently we are still looking for more graduate students to fill the Labor Committee Graduate Director, Journal and Blog Committee Graduate Director and the Events Commitee Graduate Director Role. Please note that officer positions for graduate students only require guidance and leadership, administrative work is delegated to undergraduates in consideration of the busy lives of graduate students.
