This is the third annual Symposium on Sustainability at the University of Oklahoma. This year we will focus on the sustainability related to the pharma, the energy, and the materials sectors. Come and share your ideas with world experts from academia, industry, as well as national laboratories.
We will have many things to celebrate in just three years: the online MS in Sustainability will have its first graduates in the Spring 2025 semester; the University has launched an interdisciplinary undergraduate certificate in Sustainability, OU has established the Carbon Hub, and much more. Come and engage with all our initiatives.
