Land, Habitat, and Watershed
UC Santa Cruz is known for its outstanding natural beauty and landscape.
Located on nearly 2,000 acres, the campus lands provide a living laboratory for students. We seek to increase education, research, and conservation activities on campus lands while supporting sustainable land, habitat, and watershed management practices.
Goal 3: “Steward the water and land to support healthy social and environmental ecosystems”, outlines our priority initiatives in this area.
