Consisting of two parts, the ‘Green Careers’ event starts out from 3-5 pm with an Engagement Expo where UConn Departments, Clubs, and Organizations will staff tables and discuss ways to get involved with on-campus initiatives and courses. Employers with a focus on sustainability and/or the environment will be scattered throughout the expo, so students can ask questions about what it is like to work with their organization or in the industry. (this event is not a career fair so resumes are not expected, nor will they be accepted)

Between 5-7 pm, there will be panels where students will have direct access to alumni, from multiple disciplines, sharing their insights about their work, the industry in general, their career path, UConn major and preparation, and more.

‘Green Careers: Engage and Explore’ is your opportunity to see if working in this field is right for you. Designed for all students, undergraduate and graduate, freshman through senior, this event will have something for you. Students can come and go throughout the four-hour period.

Sponsored by The Office of Sustainability and The Center for Career Readiness and Life Skills, and coordinated by Eco-Husky Interns, be sure to attend!
