IUPUI Campus Sustainability Initiative

The Campus Sustainability Initiative is an interdisciplinary coalition for sustainability programs at IUPUI integrating faculty, staff, and student participants.  IUPUI administrators, schools and departments are involved in the research, education, and implementation of sustainability, including renewable energy and fuel cells, environmental research, urban planning, greenways, and green building construction.  The Campus Sustainability Initiative is uniting these efforts to foster greater awareness and applications of sustainable practices into all areas of university life. 

We welcome additional members and projects.  If you are interested in participating in this initiative or have a project to list, please contact us.

On April 22, 2008 IUPUI formally adopted the Statement of Sustainability Principles for campus life and operations.
