Environmental
Studies Center (ETC)
The Environmental Technology Center (ETC) is a dynamic, interactive
and integrative facility where faculty, students, and community
members can work together in education, applied research, and
collaborative projects on energy and environment. Incorporating
sustainable building techniques and a wide range of design features
that minimize energy use, the ETC is projected to consume only
20% of the energy allowed by state code for similar buildings.
These “Green Building” features include environmentally responsible
building materials, passive solar heating and cooling, daylighting
and shading, advanced window systems, “smart building” control
technologies, photovoltaic electricity, and energy and water-efficient
landscaping.
Geographic
Information Center (GIC)
The mission of the GIC is to collect, house and promote the use
of geographic information for Sonoma County, for surrounding regions
and for the world. The GIC conducts projects and educates students
and community members in state-of-the-art technologies in geographic
information and analysis, particularly geographic information
systems (GIS) and remotely sensed data.

The ICPA is designed to respond to the expressed needs of public
planning agencies in SSU's service area, and to the educational
