A student-powered initiative transforming sustainable building practices through interdisciplinary collaboration.
The Sustainable Building Initiative is a professionally driven, student-led consultancy founded at the University of Texas at Austin in 2024. Born from a passion to solve real-world infrastructure challenges, we unite students from every academic discipline to function as a single, cohesive company.

As a student organization, SBI aims to drive innovation in sustainable infrastructure and empower the next generation of industry leaders. Our mission is to provide hands-on consultancy experience that delivers tangible value to our clients while developing our members' practical skills.
We bridge the gap between academic theory and professional practice, tackling the technical, environmental, and economic aspects of sustainable development.
Our goal is to become the premier student-led consultancy for sustainable development in the region, expanding our project portfolio and advancing cutting-edge research in sustainable materials and design.
