The “C” representing
the classroom involves students as an academic population who not only benefit
from course offerings and instruction in energy auditing and energy resource
management, but also facilitate improvements on campus through assessment,
auditing, and monitoring activities. Educational
opportunities offered to the students at the university under the Environmental
Science and Technology Program, administered by the Department of Engineering
Technology and Industrial Studies, offer insight into real life workplace
situations. Integration of energy
management activities into academic experiences for the students is an extension
of the improvements to the facilities on campus and the management of
accumulated deferred maintenance.
Cooperative and internship opportunities and job placement for the classroom sector of the 3-C's is another benefit.
