The Sustainability Poster Competition is an annual event open to all undergraduate and graduate students registered for classes at UNCW regardless of the field of study.
The poster competition is designed to spotlight any project, program, or research that a student has completed, or is currently working on, that supports sustainable practices and highlights the intersectionality of people, planet, and prosperity.
This cross-disciplinary competition allows students an opportunity to display their work in an engaging format that allows an audience a quick overview of the work. Students from any discipline are encouraged to apply.
