What You Can Do

UMBC’s vision for sustainability is inclusive of all people at all levels of their careers. The Office of Sustainability works with all Retrievers to design and promote initiatives that resonate with YOU and where you are in your sustainability journey. Sustainability programs are designed to appeal to students, faculty, and staff. Some programs are geared toward one demographic or another group on campus while other programs are intentionally designed to foster collaboration among all stakeholders.
