Career, Internship & Fellowship

  • 4/13 Green Career Panel

    Date: April 13th

    Time: 6:00 P.M - 8:00 P.M

    Location: McHugh 206

    As the 8th ranked University for sustainability on the Sierra Club Cool Schools list, UConn is consistently striving to not only pursue excellence in its environmental performance, but also be a center of learning for the next generation of environmental leaders. The Green Careers Panel is an event sponsored by the Office of Sustainability to provide an opportunity for students to see how their interests align with real-life sustainability and environmental career paths and to gain general career advice as well. We hope this year to center upon environmental justice and social sustainability more so than in the past. As there is increased momentum of student interest in careers in sustainability and the environment, we believe this year will be extremely helpful in providing students with insight into the many paths they can take to pursue a "green" career! Join us on Wednesday, April 13th from 6-8 PM in room 206 of McHugh Hall for a 60-minute panel, a 15–30-minute Q&A session, and a networking reception directly following to learn more from our panel of interdisciplinary environmental leaders.
