Our commitment

Missouri University of Science and Technology's commitment to the principles of environmental sustainability and responsible energy research and development extends well beyond the labs and classrooms of our campus. As the first university in the United States to adopt ISO 14001 principles for its environmental management system, Missouri S&T is dedicated to protecting human health and the environment by integrating environmental stewardship into its education, research, administration, and business activities.

Our climate commitment

In 2008, Missouri S&T, along with the rest of the four-campus University of Missouri System, signed the American College and University Presidents Climate Commitment, a nationwide movement toward climate neutrality among myriad public and private institutions. Missouri S&T's green committee, made up of concerned students, faculty and staff, is outlining how the campus will reduce its carbon footprint and otherwise minimize its environmental impact.
Missouri S&T is also a member of AASHE, the Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education. S&T students, faculty and staff may access AASHE's web-based resources by logging in with their university email address.
