A brief description of the institution’s program(s) to encourage student research in sustainability:
Our Science Research Fellows program requires research experience for the students who are in the program. As a number of our science faculty are doing sustainability related/focused research, students here have the opportunity and the encouragement to work with faculty to do research in these areas. Within the Environmental Fellows Honors Program, all students are required to do a summer or semester field experience. All of those experiences have a sustainability focus.
