SCOOP - Sustainable Consultations of Office Practices

Find out about the Wildcat Sustainability Showdown Competition

SCOOP is a student group working with offices on campus to assess current office practices and make recommendations for improvements. This student project began in 2007 with students performing office energy audits and comprehensive sustainability consultations. By 2008 this has rapidly progressed into a campus supported program.

SCOOP provides sustainable consultations to all campus departments and offices to learn and take charge in new “sustainability” techniques to start saving money and energy. The process consists of student consultants taking a walk through the office and then providing recommendations for the office. The goal is to generate savings for the campus and to help your office become more sustainable in your everyday routines. To participate in an office consultation please click HERE to submit an online request or contact our consultants at the information provided below.

Internship Opportunities:
Each semester the Sustainable Consultations of Office Practices (SCOOP) program is looking for new student interns to join our consulting team.  SCOOP is a student organization working with offices on campus, to improve their sustainable efforts. Interns learn how to be consultants by identifying opportunities to improve sustainable practices that focus on energy, waste, and procurement. We then provide recommendations for improvements to campus offices. Interviews are held during the first week of school for vacant intern positions. If you are interested in joining SCOOP, you will meet with us for an interview and then attend a training session. Continue to visit this web site for interview schedules and vacancies.
