The Hayes Barnard Sustainability Fellowship is a student and industry-focused program where exceptional students deepen their journey into the field of sustainability. Our goal is to broaden the students’ knowledge about and engage in the work of sustainability, which will prepare them to apply sustainable practices in their specific careers.
The Hayes Barnard Sustainability Fellowship experience is a transformational two years. Students will enroll in program-tailored courses for all four semesters of the fellowship, with monthly sustainability community guest speakers to discuss sustainability issues as well. In the final semester of the program, students will have a 15-week practicum experience, performing hands on sustainability work. By graduation, students will take their deepened appreciation for sustainability into their future endeavors, moving organizations towards more sustainable practices. We want our students to thrive as sustainability champions in any and all fields and positions. With sustainability becoming a vital part of the professional world, the Hayes Barnard Sustainability Fellowship experience will provide the competitive advantage needed for our students to thrive in their future endeavors.
