The University of Montana in Missoula enjoys broad, administrative and community-based support for its sustainably-minded programs.  The University offers a wide range of opportunities for involvement, intended to facilitate a deeper understanding of sustainability as well as provide for the meaningful and practical application of sustainable values.  A few of UM’s current programs include a successful Farm To College program, an established Environmental Studies graduate and undergraduate program, a new Energy Technology program through the associated UM College of Technology campus, an official commitment to the Talloires Declaration, and a dedicated and active Sustainable Campus Committee. 

During 2007, UM began active participation in Northwest SEED’s Green Campus Initiative, with an on-campus intern conducting a renewable energy feasibility study for the construction of a LEED certified campus coffee house and restaurant.
