The Institute for Sustainability, Energy and Environment (iSEE) encourages and supports faculty from diverse disciplines to investigate solutions to the challenges associated with a sustainable future. 

Our research requires interdisciplinary collaboration, bringing the brightest of the bright together to solve the world’s current and future problems. We call it “actionable research” — that is, scientific progress toward real-world solutions that can have an immediate and/or lasting impact on the world we live in.

There is also a strong effort on campus to encourage undergraduate research related to sustainability in all disciplines. Some student research opportunities may be funded, while others may be for course credit.
