Franklin University Switzerland is committed to establishing sustainable initiatives on campus. We have a wide range of sustainability-related projects, programs, courses, and more. In order to organize and centralize our sustainability-related initiatives, we have launched the Franklin University Switzerland Green Office (FUS GO).
Aimed at consolidating, developing, and implementing sustainability-related initiatives at all levels of the Franklin community, the FUS GO is a student-fueled initiative that operates within five different branches: campus operations, event coordination, education and research, external affairs and projects, and marketing. The FUS GO is a member of the Green Office Movement, and it is the only member of the GO Movement officially recognized at a Swiss and an American university.
Our Mission
The FUS GO seeks to integrate sustainability into all aspects of the university, serving as a resource for students, faculty, staff, and alumni. The GO institutionalizes sustainability through multifaceted and interdisciplinary approaches, pioneering sustainability initiatives within FUS and beyond.
Our Vision
We envision the FUS GO as a hub for sustainability, serving as a space for collaboration, joint initiatives, and real-world applications of sustainability policies within the university and global communities.

The FUS GOals:
- Mandate, strong presence, and high visibility within the university structure
- Sustainable and Responsible Academic Travel
- Carbon-neutral campus by 2050 (2019 Capstone Mitigation plan)
- Foster an inclusive community that promotes sustainability in every aspect of campus life
- Incorporate sustainability-related courses into all academic disciplines as a part of the required curriculum
