For Visitors

Welcome to Sustainable SCU! Explore our beautiful campus and participate in being part of our sustainable Bronco community.

Santa Clara's campus has many sustainability features, ranging from renewable energy sources, waste diversion sites, and sustainable buildings to water bottle filling stations and electric vehicle charging stations. 

  • Water Bottle Filling Stations

    View this interactive Google map for the locations of all the water bottle filling stations on campus. These goose-neck fillers were installed in the summer of 2011 to encourage the use of reusable water bottles as well as to help Santa Clara to continue to reducing single-use plastic water bottles on campus.

  • Sustainability Features Map

    This interactive Google map offers users the option to learn more about myriad sustainability initiatives across campus. Read about solar panels, sustainable buildings, bike parking, the organic community garden, and more. With this map, campus community members and visitors can use their smart phones to determine the nearest water filling station, compost bin, or most convenient bike rack.
