P2 is critical to maintaining our quality of life. It is a vehicle for "reinventing" traditional industrial processes and environmental programs, devising innovative alternative strategies to protect public health and the environment. P2 is a key element of EPA initiatives to protect our children's health, to promote environmental justice and urban environmental quality, to empower state and tribal programs, to encourage corporate eco-efficiency, and to preserve ecosystems.

Selected REU students will work closely with engineering faculty on projects that encourage P2 and Sustainability. Projects span a number of disciplines, including Civil and Environmental Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Mechanical, Electrical and Computer Engineering, Biology and Chemistry. Students studying in any engineering or science discipline are encouraged to apply!

This summer, the Rowan Engineering REU lasts from June 3 through July 21.
