Sustainability and Climate Change across the Curriculum Workshop at University of Illinois Chicago
The Teaching Sustainability Initiative (TSI) is now in its seventh year of supporting UIC instructors in expanding sustainability teaching and learning in their course offerings. TSI provides training, support and compensation for incorporating sustainability into existing courses or for developing new courses entirely.
The Teaching Sustainability Initiative is a program that provides instructors from all subject areas an overview on how to amend and/or create curricula to include sustainability concepts. The workshop explores how we can meaningfully integrate sustainability—broadly defined—into UIC classrooms and provides access to a network of experienced instructors who provide assistance and feedback to formulate a dynamic syllabus and curriculum.
The Spring 2026 Teaching Sustainability Initiative Workshop will be held on the UIC Campus at the Center for the Advancement of Teaching Excellence (CATE) on Thursday, May 14, from 9-1. NON-UIC faculty are welcome to join by sending required RSVP to sustinabilty@uic.edu.
University of Illinois Chicago is one of the regional AASHE Centers for Sustainability Across the Curriculum. Centers host workshops and other professional development opportunities throughout the year. If you aren’t able to attend this event, please consider attending one of the other upcoming events organized by a Center.
