  • Sustainability

    The University of Michigan—Ann Arbor has a presidential commitment to sustainability spanning education, research, and operations. The Graham Sustainability Institute serves as the connection point for academic initiatives on campus, fostering multi-stakeholder collaborations to create and disseminate knowledge to help solve complex sustainability challenges. Through the “Sustainability and the Campus” course, undergraduate students engage in hands-on projects that have catalyzed initiatives such as zero-waste athletic events and a “Be a Green Wolverine” student guide to sustainable living. The Student Sustainability Initiative coordinates student activities across campus and played a key role in encouraging UM to establish an Office of Campus Sustainability. “Planet Blue” Operations Teams lead an environmental conservation campaign of technology retrofits and occupant behavioral changes that has reduced energy usage in 137 campus buildings by 8 percent with a cost avoidance of $4 million annually. New construction of more than $10 million must meet a dual standard of LEED Silver Certification, plus 30 percent beyond industry energy conservation standards. Students with an entrepreneurial bug will be excited to hear that in 2011, UM revamped its Michigan Clean Energy Venture Challenge, which is designed to help UM students turn ideas into thriving businesses. Renewable energy has increased in the last few years with the purchase of 5 megawatts of wind energy.
