Landscape Design, Installation and Maintenance
The OSU Landscape Master Plan creates the framework for future growth and preserves the universities heritage and culture. Landscape Services maintains a set of design and maintenance standards with guidelines that help create and inspire our cowboy families’ greatest memories.
Office of Sustainability
The office serves as the catalyst, convener, and champion of sustainability ideas and actions at OSU. We oversee the education, outreach, management, implementation, and development of a comprehensive sustainability program with the mission to minimize OSU’s environmental footprint, support new initiatives for sustainable development, encourage and promote integration and collaboration with OSU’s academic, research, and education programs, and realize meaningful operational cost savings through efficiency programs.
Oklahoma State University Arboretum
Trees are an important contributor to Oklahoma State University’s strength and character. Trees enhance personal enjoyment, social connection, health, and quality of life for our students, faculty, staff, alumni, and other members of our Cowboy Family. In September 2022, OSU was officially named a Level II Arboretum through the ArbNet organization. Oklahoma State University has been awarded the Arbor Day Foundation's Tree Campus Higher Education award (formerly Tree Campus USA) every year since 2011.

Greenhouse Production is responsible for growing the seasonal color for campus flowerbeds. Plant rentals are available for on-campus event use. Delivery is available.
