Campus Ecology Projects¶

National Wildlife Federation’s Campus Ecology Fellows confront global warming on their campuses and help to educate and engage the campus community on global warming impacts and solutions.

Monetary fellowship grants are awarded to undergraduate and graduate students working with other members of the faculty, staff, or administration on projects designed to help reverse global warming on campus and beyond. In addition to a modest grant, Fellows also receive project support, recognition of their accomplishments and other perks.

Projects include:

• Energy efficiency in new and existing buildings

• Greener transportation plans

• Installation of clean energy technology on campus

• Purchasing of clean energy

• Food systems

• Habitat restoration and protection

• And more!

NWF Fellowships allow students to pursue their vision of an ecologically sustainable future through tangible projects to confront global warming on campus and in the community. Fellows gain practical experience in the conservation field and first-hand knowledge of the challenges and opportunities inherent in successful conservation efforts.
