Student Opportunities
We work to provide our students rich and deep experiences that will educate, promote change, and get their hands dirty. Come join us!
With community at its core, the Center for the Environment works to create and support interdisciplinary, project-based student engagement in, for, and about the environment. Through external partnerships for special student-run projects, discussion panels and films, and co-sponsorship and coordination with existing clubs, groups, and departments on campus, students have countless opportunities to cultivate their passion and leadership for the health of our environment for years to come. Additionally, those seeking to make environmental engagement a larger part of their campus lives will find an array of work and internship experiences available to them right outside their residence halls.
