Oneonta’s Sustainable Susquehanna is an annual program that brings together faculty from across the university to support new courses, or new units in existing courses, that incorporate issues of sustainability and environmental awareness. Sustainable Susquehanna is based on nationally recognized models known for their innovative approach to curricular change and is designed to create a community for intellectual conversation around the economic, societal and environmental dimensions of sustainability on the local and global scale. Since it's inception in 2013, 67 faculty from 24 different departments throughout the social sciences, natural sciences, and humanities participated in the program and taught a new course or updated an existing course with sustainability learning outcomes.

Participants receive an honorarium of $1000 upon completion of a new or revised syllabus (with the intent to teach the course by the following fall or spring). Participants also join in a fieldtrip and discussions that will offer opportunities to extend research and teaching horizons across disciplines and create new networks with fellow colleagues.
