Where we are

Santander Universities supports educational institutions all across the world.

"Since I've learned about green technology, I try to waste less and recycle more. I've incorporated what I've learned into my own life. The one thing that really stands out for me is just how different actual construction is from the computer models we start with in class. Those lessons are invaluable. Thanks, Santander, for helping to make this possible!"

– Kemoy Henry, New York City College of Technology
