A University operates a small city to support the mission of teaching and research, providing a home for students, and welcoming visitors. Learn how sustainability is integrated into operations across UNC Charlotte each day.

The Office of Sustainability collaborates with faculty, staff and students to measure progress, propose solutions, initiate changes, develop skills and share experiences that create conditions contributing to environmental, social and financial dimensions of sustainability.
