A brief description of the institution's green laboratory program:
The Green Lab Certification process at TAMU is designed to ensure both leaders and members of perspective labs are on the same page of what it means to be a Green Lab. Steps of the certification process include equipment evaluation, a statement of understanding by lab members, recycling, “green” purchasing”, and the sharing of equipment and space amongst other labs. The specific requirements can be found in the TAMU Green Labs Certification Application.
