Program Information

The mission of CSULB’s Office of Sustainability is to strengthen the university’s role as a higher education sustainability leader by ensuring that the campus models sustainable operations while educating and empowering students, faculty and staff to be exceptional stewards of the environment. The Office monitors compliance with sustainability-related state regulations, university policies, and commitments, and builds partnerships to achieve our shared goals. Some key priorities we focus on include: water conservation, promoting clean energy, advocating for sustainability and climate literacy in the curriculum, and moving the campus toward Zero Waste. The Office of Sustainability is also a partner in planning major events such as Earth Week, the Green Generation Showcase, and Sustainability Month. All students, regardless of race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, sex, gender, gender identity, and sexual orientation, are open and welcome to participate.

Health & Safety

Students will work directly with a member of our office to gather data or guide patrons in properly sorting waste in the Pyramid.
