One-Week Enrichment - Exploring Solutions to Global Problems: Climate, Energy & Sustainability

To meet the global energy challenge, the next generation of climate and energy scientists must address the need for reliable, affordable energy to foster economic growth while averting climate change and damages to the environment. Exploring Solutions to Global Problems: Climate, Energy & Sustainability is a week-long enrichment program designed to prepare high school students for future careers in climate and energy policy. Through rigorous discussion-based classes, readings, lectures, and collaborative hands-on projects, students will learn about pressing current issues in climate and energy from leading faculty in the Energy Policy Institute at the University of Chicago (EPIC), the Becker Friedman Institute, and the Climate Impact Lab.
