Why at AUCA?

The American University of Central Asia’s Environmental Management for Sustainable Development faculty members are award-winning researchers and teachers who encourage students to become involved in basic inquiry and critical thinking, cross-disciplinary cooperation, and the application of concepts to real-life problems so that they develop the environmental problem-solving skills required for the most dynamic areas of today’s job market.

While a number of environmental initiatives exist on AUCA’s current campus, more are being developed on the new campus: eco-friendly roofs, a solar power installation, wind energy, biking initiatives, and a groundbreaking geothermal heating and cooling system that will reduce energy needs by an estimated 87%.
