Welcome to the UNF Environmental Center!
Environmental issues and problems are by their very nature multidisciplinary. Many of the challenges of the 21st century will be environmental as humankind tests the carrying capacity of our planet. UNF has adopted a cooperative and integrated approach to understanding our environment and managing resources wisely by establishing a new Environmental Center. The Center will respond to the pressing need for research relevant to environmental issues, help design thoughtful planning processes, encourage responsible stewardship, and help prepare the next generation of environmentally literate society leaders.
The center is governed by an Executive Board representing all five UNF colleges: Brooks College of Health; Coggin College of Business; Arts & Sciences; Computing, Engineering & Construction and Education & Human Services.
