Student Fellowships - old

A research fellowship at Loyola is a competitive grant to a current student based on their prior academic performance. These School of Environmental Sustainability fellowship programs enable both undergraduate and graduate students to gain practical experience in interdisciplinary research.  

Aquatic Ecology

Focused on the Great Lakes, streams and inland lakes of our region, our research addresses the health of aquatic ecosystems, the causes of degradation, and the feedback impacts on human health.

Clean Alternative Energy

The Clean Energy Lab is an applications labs where students are challenged to apply their classrooms skills and knowledge to implement zero-waste processes to pilot scale alternative fuel production. Our main research focus is on the utilization of process by-products to create value-add, sellable products.

Ecological Restoration and Conservation

Work to understand, protect and restore important and sensitive habitats is ongoing at Loyola. We approach the multiple purposes or stakeholder objectives in a land management situation in a way that gives multiple solutions from the restoration effort.
