EPA offers annual research grants to U.S. colleges and universities to engage students in projects to solve our world’s most serious environmental challenges. Through its People, Prosperity and the Planet (P3) program, students working on teams design sustainability solutions and compete for more funding to take their ideas from the lab to the real world. 

In its 10th year, EPA’s P3 program fosters team-based learning, interdisciplinary effort and class-to-real-world experience. Take this opportunity for the 2014-15 school year to excite your students about making a difference in the world today. Be watching for this announcement in the coming weeks.
