Overview

Integrating sustainability at BCIT

Our commitment to sustainability encompasses everything from advancing the state of practice through education and research, to improving the efficiency of campus operations, to engaging the community across the institute.

Implementing the Living Lab

Back in 2006 we started using the term Living Laboratories of Sustainability as a way of describing how we could transform our campus into a dynamic example of techniques for reducing environmental impact and increasing social equity. Find out more.

Inspiring change from the ground up

The BCIT Green Team is a volunteer group of employees keen on inspiring change from the ground up. Following the team's successful Heat Savers initiative, they're in the midst of a new Commute Smart campaign. Learn more about the Green Team.

Funding green initiatives

BCIT's Revolving Fund for Sustainability provides no-interest loans for internal projects that save energy, conserve water, reduce waste, and/or lower operating costs. Find out more.

Empowering cyclists

We've just launched a website geared to the needs of cycle commuters. The site is chock-full of useful information, from routes to campus, to the location of showers and lockers. Check it out.
