The Women’s Leadership Council of Stony Brook University was established in 2014 to serve a group of outstanding female students who are carefully
selected for their academic potential, self-motivation, and commitment to success
in their chosen field.
Through its work, the Council provides a platform for the intergenerational transmission
of advantage by exposing student and early alumni participants to the professional
practices and business etiquette needed to complement their academic training at Stony
Brook.
Women's Leadership Council students remain engaged with the University through the
network of WLC alumni, and contribute their time, expertise and support to the Council
for the next generation of Stony Brook women.
Students have successfully participated in internships at
CERN • Memorial Sloan Kettering • Greater New York Hospital Association • Cold Spring
Harbor Lab • NYU Langone • Discovery Channel • The Cloisters • Yale Writers' Workshop

Students have also been accepted to a wide range of graduate programs at schools such
as
