A More Sustainable Drexel University

The Climate & Sustainability team partners with students, faculty and professional staff to build a more sustainable Drexel by measuring the University’s performance on sustainability metrics, developing and disseminating resources, and creating engaging programming. We work extensively with offices and departments across the University to examine and adjust policies and practices with the goal of reducing climate impacts and building a climate-conscious campus culture.
