The UAF Sustainable Village student design competition will engage university students in designing a cluster of small student housing units that will be cost effective, resource responsible, energy efficient and community focused. The Cold Climate Housing Research Center will consider all good ideas generated in the competition for incorporation in the final design. Registration begins Monday, Aug. 15. More information, including the competition guidelines and timeline, is available online.

The Sustainable Village at UAF is a shared project between the Office of Sustainability and CCHRC with a goal of contributing to a more sustainable built environment at UAF and elsewhere in the circumpolar north.
