Science-Led Environmental Solutions
USC Wrigley Institute for Environmental Studies
The Wrigley Institute is leading the way in fundamental and applied research to meet environmental sustainability challenges for the 21st century. The Institute’s facility on Catalina Island, the Wrigley Marine Science Center, serves as a unique test bed for emerging multidisciplinary technologies and solutions with potential application worldwide. Its programs take advantage of USC’s Los Angeles and Catalina campus dichotomy to solve issues at both ends of the sustainability spectrum – from challenges faced by small and remote communities, up to those of today’s mega-urban, coastal societies.
