色香视频鈥檚 Sustainability Program engages students and the community beyond the classroom through multiple opportunities: internship opportunities throughout the year, a variety of research opportunities supervised by our dedicated faculty, and hands-on experiences in the real world through events during Sustainability Week and Sustainability Month.

Undergraduate Research

As high-impact practices, undergraduate research always is the key for the Sustainability Program. The program used to fund students participating in Adrian Tinsley Program (ATP) Projects and Summer Internships.

Starting in Spring 2021, the program launched a new grant for undergraduate on sustainability through collaboration in an interdisciplinary team with students and faculty.

Internships

色香视频鈥檚 Sustainability Program offers 10 internship opportunities throughout the year: four interns in the fall, four interns in the spring, and one to two interns in the summer. Students also are encouraged to explore more job opportunities through  (色香视频's database for internship and career development), the internship office and Career Services.

Environmental Action Team (EAT)

EAT is an active student club on campus. EAT has been working closely with the Sustainability Program for a variety of interesting year-round events (such as movie nights, clear-up, pledge and the Climate March) on campus and in the community. One of the Sustainability Program coordinators usually serves as the academic advisor for the student group.

In October 2019, EAT was selected as the regional winner of the Organization of the Month by the National Residence Hall Honorary.
