The UF TESI Environmental Leaders Network (EL Network) is a network for undergraduate students here at the University of Florida who have an interest in environmental topics.
Through this network, we seek to empower students interested in the environment through opportunities, seminars, workshops, networking, etc. The goal is to connect students with resources on and off the University of Florida campus.
We want to connect students to opportunities that can utilize their skills, passions, and knowledge, for the betterment of the environment!
What does the EL Network offer?
The EL Network hosts a database of resources, opportunities, and information that is shared with students in the network. Opportunities include but are not limited to internship opportunities, seminars, webinars, workshops, panels, etc. All opportunities will fall within the environmental sector. The EL Network will also plan periodic social events for network members to meet and network.
