Supported Research
HERC provides support for undergraduate and graduate students to get hands-on experience and training conducting projects addressing realistic and comprehensive research solutions to environmental problems in the four areas of the HERC mission that include recycling, degradability, improvement of air and water quality and conservation of trees. Students works with faculty members in multiple academic units to develop technologies and processes that result in publications and presentations to external audiences.
