In 2018, students at Michigan Tech through their representative bodies, Undergraduate Student Government (USG) and Graduate Student Government (GSG), formally endorsed A Resolution for Action and Engagement in Sustainable Practice at Michigan Technological University, acknowledging that "Michigan Technological University is recognized as a leader in the research of complex problems, innovation, and in understanding the natural world that surrounds us here in the Upper Peninsula. By incorporating knowledge of sustainability into practices and culture across the University, we shall build a resilient community and prevent emergent problems."
Sustainability is a top priority at Michigan Tech - "Sustainability & Resilience" is one of nine Tech Forward Initiatives supported by the Office of the President. You can read more about Sustainability at Michigan Tech on the University's Sustainability Blog.
