What is I2E2? The International Institute for Environment & Enterprise is a collaboration of intellectual inquiry and principled action concerning the relationship between people and planet Earth. I2E2 was established as the Environment Institute in 1996 as part of the University's Academic Strategic Initiatives Process. I2E2 presents a collaborative, multidisciplinary approach to environmental research and scholarship.

What does I2E2 advocate? I2E2 advocates environmental literacy and sustainable development in the 21st century-where prosperity, social justice, and environmental quality are the guidelines for living.

What are the goals of I2E2?

  • Preparing students for tomorrow's challenges—to work creatively and collaboratively to solve difficult and complex environmental problems.
  • Forging new patterns of collaboration across academic disciplines.
  • Conducting basic research to further the understanding of the environment.
  • Conducting applied research to support environmentally and economically appropriate technology, business management practices, and public policies for improving community life.
  • Promoting partnerships and alliances that foster understanding and provide opportunities for addressing environmental challenges.
  • Attracting nationally and internationally recognized teachers and researchers to the University to facilitate dialogue on global environmental issues.
  • Working with students, staff, and faculty to become a "sustainable" university.

Who are the Faculty Associates of the I2E2? Faculty Associates of I2E2 at the University of Denver embrace a collaborative, multidisciplinary approach to the research and scholarship of the environment. Faculty Associates integrate and connect the ecological, economic, urban, and academic communities around common goals; coordinate and leverage efforts to enhance environmental opportunities, to prevent environmental problems, and to find workable solutions-locally, regionally, nationally, and internationally.
