Apply your knowledge to become a sustainability leader
Gain experience and unlock your potential

Since 2013, our classic program at GreenLight Solutions is our Student-Led Sustainability Projects, where students join a project team and partner with a business to help meet their sustainability goals.
This partnership is a win-win: Students gain practical, transferable skills, an applied learning opportunity, and hands-on experience working in sustainability project management beyond the classroom. This all-inclusive experience incorporates training, curriculum, resources, mentorship, project support, exclusive networking events, and public speaking opportunities. Business leaders gain an innovative, passionate team to advance sustainability initiatives at their organization. |

By 2030, the two occupations projected to have the fastest employment growth involve “green” work.
“GreenLight has been such a value add to my college experience—even as a junior. This is my first semester in the organization, and my project team and interactions with leadership have been stellar. I’ve been looking for ways to get involved with ‘green’ organizations on campus as a business sustainability major, and GreenLight has hands down been what I’ve been looking for.” “My time with GreenLight has truly been one of the highlights of my college career. I joined during my Sophomore year hoping to gain some professional skills that would help me in the business world, and I got so much more than that! Literally every role I’ve had within GreenLight has helped prepare me for life after graduation.” |
“Thank you GreenLight Solutions Foundation for everything I was able to learn with you. Getting involved with you guys added so much to my study abroad experience and I highly recommend everyone interested to join GreenLight Solutions for a transformation towards a more sustainable future.” “I was blown away by the order and depth of the organization. This is not simply a student club. This is a highly-organized, hierarchical team that enables students to gain real-world applicable experience. GLS has enhanced my collegiate experience and expanded my knowledge of sustainability outside the classroom.” |
