Conducting research is a major function of the University of Houston. By researching sustainability issues, the University can continue to help the world understand sustainability challenges and develop new technologies, strategies, and approaches to address those challenges.
Sustainability research focuses on a key principle of sustainability (such as social equity or environmental stewardship); addresses a sustainability challenge (such as climate change or poverty); or furthers our understanding of the interconnectedness of societal and environmental challenges.
