Since
its inception in 1948, SUNY has lead the way
in forming innovative programs that meet the
needs of communities and their economic vitality.
Towards that end, the SUNY Center for Brownfield
Studies was created to educate the environmental
professionals of tomorrow by developing comprehensive
approaches to evaluate, remediate, and reuse
brownfield sites.
Using the aggregate
of SUNY’s distinguished faculty across
disciplines, students at the Center will have
the opportunity to learn about cutting edge
remediation technologies and their effects
on community redevelopment. Through continuing
education and job development programs, the
Center will provide local business and industry
with trained technicians. Other students will
work with some of SUNY’s research scientists
and community planners in helping to solve
some of today’s most urgent environmental
problems.
