Western Washington University’s Sustainability Pathways program, now in its seventh year, welcomed its largest cohort yet for summer 2026: 22 undergraduates working with 20 organizations, agencies and non-profits in the Methow and Okanogan valleys on projects focused on the environment, health and well-being, social equity and economic vitality.

Housed in the College of the Environment, the immersive residential program offers paid work experiences aligned with students’ fields of study and coursework in community-based project management. For some students, the fellowship is their first opportunity to work in their chosen field.
