Who We Are
The Center for Leadership and Ethics (CLE) cultivates leaders who live out The University of Texas at Austin’s enduring purpose – transforming lives for the benefit of society. Because leadership transcends any single academic discipline, the Center works across the school to amplify the value of a McCombs education, equipping students with the knowledge, experiences, and deliberate practice to earn trust, assume meaningful responsibility, and lead with distinction at every stage of their careers.
