School of Pharmacy Green Team
Piloted in January 2016, the Green Office program engages the University of Waterloo community in initiatives to make our campus greener.
The School of Pharmacy joined the Green Office program in 2019 and is working to evaluate and improve sustainability practices at the School. In August 2020, the School of Pharmacy was recognized as a Bronze Certified Office.
In November 2022, the School achieved Silver certification!
