Climate Change in Environmental Engineering Education
A workshop at the AEESP Research and Education Conference
The 2022 Association of Environmental Engineering and Science Professors (AEESP) Research and Education Conference is hosted by Washington University in St. Louis together with Missouri University of Science & Technology, Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, and University of Missouri-Columbia.
https://aeesp2022.wustl.edu/
Workshop organizers: Catherine A. Peters, Andres Clarens, Jeff Cunningham, Brian Ellis, Lauren Beckingham
Additional Speakers: Dominico Grasso, Bruce Logan, Dave Dzomback, Z. Jason Ren, Daniel Cohan
Climate change, climate change mitigation, climate change resilience, and climate change adaptation are among the most important and challenging environmental problems. Professors of environmental engineering have a responsibility to prepare graduates for a future in which they will be called upon to advance, lead and innovate to solve this grand challenge.
A Call to Action!
