Make a difference
The Campus Sustainability Intern works with students, faculty and staff on a wide array of sustainability initiatives. This includes working closely with the Sustainability Fellow and campus stakeholders in the research, implementation, and analysis of sustainability projects and co-curricular sustainability programming. All interns are expected to be leaders, researchers, advocates, and participants.
