ESSR has been busy this year with many projects, thanks to the dedication of our staff and the support of campus partners. Together, we continue to foster a culture of safety and service that aligns with the University’s strategic plan and the Division of Administration’s mission, vision, and values. Learn more about our progress and impact in the ESSR 2024-2025 Annual Report.
This year also marks the 50th anniversary of the Department of Environmental Safety, Sustainability and Risk (ESSR)—a milestone that invites us to reflect on our journey, celebrate our achievements, and look ahead to a future where safety and sustainability remain integral to the University of Maryland.
