Guest Speaker Series
Our guest speaker series is held in each fall semester to educate students on the multitude of ways sustainability is applied in the professional world. We host experts from a wide variety of of fields to discuss the extent of the sustainability conversation in their jobs, the paths they've taken, and any advise for students. It is a great networking opportunity, as many students use these connections for job and internship opportunities.
