Student Sustainability Research Incentives
Yes
A brief description of the student research program, including the incentives provided and any positive outcomes during the previous three years:
Mills College encourages "sustainability" research through participation in a directed research project in Environmental Science (0.25 credits per semester) during the academic year and also through summer student research in Chemistry (Langsley Fellowships) and Biology (Barrett Fellowships) both of which offer stipends for summer plus some funds for materials and equipment. Many faculty conduct research in environmental science, broadly defined, in both the Chemistry and Biology departments.
Within the MBA and MPP graduate programs, there are applied research projects with incentives including financially supported fellowships and credit, which are often related to sustainability.
