NJHEPS | New Jersey Higher Education Partnership for Sustainability
The New Jersey Higher Education Partnership for Sustainability (NJHEPS) is a statewide collaborative of higher education institutions preparing the next generation of climate citizens and demonstrating sustainable, equitable, and innovative solutions.
Our purpose is to bring together our college and university communities to act on the scale we need to realize a more just, sustainable future for New Jersey.
We engage in three primary activities:
Workforce Development
Knowledge Sharing

focusing on five key areas:
-
Curriculum, academic programs and research
-
Campus activities and student experience
-
Professional development for practitioners
-
Operations of the physical plant and grounds
-
Partnerships and cooperation between the academic community and corporations, advocacy groups, non-profit agencies, and civic and community associations
