UF Undergraduate Students

Our Environmental Leaders programs aim to connect UF students to environmental research, education & outreach, and civic engagement opportunities.

• UF TESI Environmental Leaders Fellowship Sponsorship: Sponsor a Fellow in the next academic yearlong cohort and help provide them with the knowledge, skills, confidence, and network to advocate for the planet as they take on leadership roles in their respective careers. In this type of collaboration, you financially sponsor an undergraduate from diverse majors and backgrounds to take part in your research or another project while providing guidance and mentorship along the way. In turn, TESI manages the recruitment and placement of students; hosts a Fellowship orientation; provides monthly meetings for student socialization, networking, and experiences; coordinates the spring break field experience; hosts an end-of-year symposium; and provides evaluation services and results.
• Student focused events and activities: Consider hosting a seminar, workshop, or field activity for UF students. Examples might include a scientific illustration workshop or a panel about graduate school or career pathways. TESI will promote your activity through the Environmental Leaders Network. The EL Network hosts a database of environmentally focused jobs, internships, volunteer opportunities, workshops, seminars, and more. We seek to empower students interested in the environment through opportunities, seminars, workshops, networking, and more.
