EnviroFest: Towson’s 5th Annual Environmental Conference
The annual conference is designed to raise awareness among students, faculty and staff about environmental topics, issues and solutions. Each year members of the campus community gather to hear presentations from faculty, students and environmental leaders in the Baltimore region. The conference addresses the impact of individuals and communities on the environment and actions that individuals and communities can take to positively impact the environment and create a more sustainable world.
This year we look forward to an informative keynote presentation followed by multiple breakout sessions, as well as an experienced lunch panel discussion. Additionally, we will be introducing a Career, Resource, and Mentoring Fair to assist students in networking and formatting their career search.
Registration is now available! Tickets are free for Towson University students, faculty, and staff. For external guests, tickets are $5 (plus fees).
