Mission
Energize Colleges is a program of SEI launched in 2016. We support a network of California colleges and universities to advance energy and sustainability education and workforce development through experiential learning.
SEI is a nonprofit that builds leaders to drive sustainability solutions. The Energize Colleges program, along with Energize Schools offers K-College energy education and workforce development to thousands of students each year.
Energize Colleges is a vehicle for creating a cleaner, healthier, and more resilient future by training the engineers, analysts, building scientists, policy-makers, and entrepreneurs who will lead the transformation to a clean energy future.

What Could Energize Colleges Look Like on Your Campus?
In the first year of a campus' participation in the Energize Colleges program, SEI could place a full time Climate Corps Fellow at the campus. Fellows are college graduates who lead climate and energy internship and education projects on the campus, while developing energy career pathways. Each Fellow has a site supervisor on campus, typically a faculty or staff member who serves as a direct supervisor and provides support.
Each Fellow in turn recruits and supports a number of current college students in finding and completing an internship directly related to one of the eight energy career pathways identified as part of this program. The program could also supports participating campuses by providing grants to faculty to develop courses and curriculum that strengthen these career pathways.
