EVMT Capstone project

In the final year, EVMT students will have a unique opportunity to work with a corporate partner on current environmental/sustainability issues. This year-long capstone project integrates classroom concepts and allows them to apply their knowledge under the supervision of capstone advisors to get hands-on experience in environmental/sustainability decision making.
