UNF Environmental Student Symposium
Annual event every spring to showcase the community projects completed due to the valuable partnerships between ELP scholars and community partners. The UNF Environmental Student Symposium provides the opportunity for attendees to enjoy lite bites, talk with our students, view project posters and hear more about the amazing things happening with the Environmental Leadership Program and the Institute.
The Environmental Leadership Program (ELP) provides undergraduate students from any major a scholarship to complete leadership training and implement a community-based project in Northeast Florida. The goal of the program is to create the next generation of environmental leaders.
