Who and What are the Student Chapter of ISIE?
Representing the next generation of industrial ecologists
Today's students will be the industrial ecologists of the future. Our
active involvement now ensures a future generation of professionals who
support the Society. Students already represent a considerable
membership of ISIE. ISIE students come from all over the world,
including Norway, Japan, China, the United States, Switzerland, the
Netherlands and many more...
Student involvement with industrial ecology
Students are actively and directly involved with work in the field of
industrial ecology. The projects that students work on are innovative
and on the cutting edge of the field. Dissertations are available on the
ISIE main Homepage.
A bit of history
The "formal" ISIE Student Chapter was initiated at the Gordon
Conference in June 2002, thanks to the interest of the students, and the
support of many - including John Ehrenfeld, David Allen, etc. Due to
the fact that students in the field of IE are dispersed around the
world, there is a need for us to have a 'home' for communication among
our peers. We need to form a community for ourselves, understand how
broad of a field IE is by learning from each other's research,
collaborate together on papers, hold discussions on topics, and very
importantly, have a place that provides networking.
