In this paper we will discuss a unique leadership program for engineers which was developed at the Colorado School of Mines (CSM) over 15 years ago. We believe that this program provides a `liberal arts' model for leadership preparation as opposed to the `business school' model. In our program students have the opportunity to study and practice leadership both in the classroom and in authentic contexts over the course of three and one-half years.
