About this opportunity

The Tomorrow's Leaders Graduate (TLG) Program supports students from the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region by providing a unique opportunity to pursue higher education and earn a master's degree at a U.S.-accredited university in the MENA region. The TLG program intends to cultivate leadership skills and the spirit of civic engagement and volunteerism among exceptional students. TLG targets students from around the region who are academically qualified but who are otherwise unable to afford American-style higher education. Students will enroll at the graduate level at one of the hosting institutions: the American University of Beirut (AUB), the Lebanese American University (LAU) in Lebanon, and the American University in Cairo (AUC) in Egypt. TLG equips graduate students with professional experience needed to advance knowledge and contribute to the achievement of socially relevant outcomes through research that furthers the professionalization of emerging leaders. Upon returning to their home countries, participants join a network of over 1200 program alumni serving as leaders across the MENA region.
