Sustainability is integrated throughout all of the University's operations so we can move towards our institutional goal of climate neutrality.

At UMass Lowell, there are multiple areas of operations that are being run behind the scenes to work toward our sustainability goals. While they may not be obvious to the public eye, these operations are constantly working in the background of our lives and have effects that reach far beyond our campus community. Many of these sustainable campus operations play a role in your life as well Click below to explore different aspects of our campus sustainability initiatives and learn how our work here at UMass Lowell can help you enhance your own sustainability goals.
