These alumni hold positions with a variety of companies, including Aramark, Intel, Waste Management, Tesla Motors, U-Haul International, Environmental Protection Agency and U.S. Geological Survey.

Because the sustainability field continues to grow and employers are seeking highly educated experts, the School of Sustainability launched the Executive Master’s for Sustainability Leadership, a program developed and administered through the Rob and Melani Walton Sustainability Solutions Initiatives. Created for working individuals who want to lead sustainability practices and programs for their employers, the hybrid program complements theory with real-world practice.
