The iCAP 2020 objective 6.1 is to "Broaden the availability of sustainability education across the entire curriculum, beginning with first-year student orientation and continuing through commencement, with at least one of four proposed methods implemented by FY24." The responsible campus unit for championing this objective is iSEE.

The iCAP 2020 objective 6.2 is to "Establish a comprehensive online repository for courses and academic programs with sustain-ability content." The responsible campus unit for championi

The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign is constantly striving to improve the education of its students.  Through the efforts and contributions of many individuals, several opportunities were identified for integrating sustainability into our education mission.

As a world-class university, Illinois has the capacity and the obligation to assume a leadership role in climate destabilization research and action. We believe it can inspire a wide range of exciting and crucial scholarship, while developing cross-campus partnerships, and engage our students. Significant efforts are underway in addressing each of the University's core components of its mission—education, research, and public engagement, along with campus operations, as they relate to sustainability.

Bicycling is the most sustainable mode of transportation.  It is fun, convenient, and healthy, yet many people do not utilize this excellent travel mode because they need more information.  The University is working with the communities to provide bicycle safety training, awareness events, and lessons in maintaining a bicycle.

Further developing and encouraging the use of active transportation modes that promote walking, bicycling, and public transit is one of the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign’s strategic initiatives.

In FY12, the Student Sustainability Committee approved $225,000 to upgrade a number of bike parking locations on campus. Facilities & Services is completing the work to upgrade these locations by the end of Summer 2013.

After the success of the first SSC funded bike parking upgrade, F&S requested additional funding for more bike parking, two air pumps, and partial funding for a bicycle path at Hazelwood from Orchard Downs to the UI Research Park.

The goal of this project is to provide standard bicycle parking at three locations on campus: Freer Hall, the Undergraduate Library, and the Agricultural Engineering Sciences Building.  This will encourage bicycle riding and support the Campus Area Transportation Study (CATS) mission “to better accommodate pedestrian, bicycle, transit, and vehicle movements in a more user-friendly environment.”  This is also one of the amenities recommended by the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Multi-Modal Transportation Study recommendation to “provide other amenities to accommodate existing bi

The existing bicycle parking on campus has some areas that are in top-notch condition, some areas that are so worn-down that they are no longer functional, and some areas that are underserved.  Bicyclists often park on railings, trees, parking meters, or light poles.  In order to provide appropriate bicycle parking and eliminate the use of unapproved or illegal bike parking locations, the University needs to bring existing bike parking areas up to current standards and identify locations where additional bike parking is needed.
