Sustainable Marquette Employee Resource Group

Purpose: The Sustainable Marquette Employee Resource Group supports the university's guiding values and pledges to pray for, learn about, assess, act upon, and advocate for climate justice.  By providing a platform for shared resources, workshops, and discussions, we seek to engage MU faculty and staff in incorporating sustainable practices into their personal and professional lives.  Our group organizes opportunities for faculty and staff to get involved in community and campus sustainability efforts at whatever level they feel most comfortable and assists in developing knowledge and skills with respect to sustainability.

Labs

The Cook Lab

Through our research, we are on a quest to uncover how organisms collect information about their world, how they share that information with others, and ultimately how they prioritize information and organize as a group to affect change in their environment.

Water Quality Center

This center brings together researchers, industries, government agencies, private foundations and others to solve problems related to lake, river and groundwater quality. We work in the areas of environmental engineering and water resources engineering.

Engineering Hall Labs
