NEW! M. Eng. & Ph.D. programs in Sustainable Infrastructure Design

Sustainable development is development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.

-Brundtland Report (World Commission on Environment & Development)

The College of Engineering at UCD-HSC is engaged in several projects relating to sustainability. This is a common portal through which information concerning each of these activities can be accessed. We are investigating sustainable infrastructure development at three different levels:

Urban Cityscapes	State of Colorado	Rural Communities Worldwide
The Urban Sustainable Infrastructure Engineering Project looks at uniquely urban aspects of sustainability. We are working in cities in the US and in India with populations ranging from one hundred thouand to four million.	(Coming soon!) The Colorado 2050 Project brings professional engineers and city planners together with USIEP faculty and students to build a sustainable Colorado by the year 2050, addressing population-resource dynamics.	Participatory Learning and Creativity Education for Sustainability provides the skills and practical tools required for implementing development projects in rural communities worldwide.
