Sustainability is a philosophy at ASU and we incorporate it into education, operations outreach and research. ASU is an innovative academic laboratory and demonstration model of sustainable processes and practices.

ASU campuses include a variety of buildings, programs and design elements that embody the university’s building toward being a “living laboratory” for sustainability. The Sustainability Tour highlights several “Sustainability Points of Pride” that exemplify ASU’s effort to incorporate the principles of sustainability into its physical and academic environment.
