In April 2006, the WSU Faculty Senate approved a faculty-led initiative to create a system-wide interdisciplinary Center for Environmental Research, Education and Outreach (CEREO). CEREO's premise is simple: through building synergism and creative collaboration among faculty involved in environmentally-oriented activities, WSU will offer outstanding environmental programs.
Clean Technologies research at Washington State University takes an inter disciplinary approach to environmental issues. Faculty and graduate researchers across Washington State University are addressing the threats of energy supply, global warming, pollution, and resource depletion through research and policy development. We want to help make the transition to an economy based on alternatives to fossil fuels and ensure that Washington becomes one of the nation’s leaders in the area of clean technology.
