A brief description of the student sustainability research program:
The Summer Sustainability Community-Engaged Research Program was first offered in Spring 2018, following previous years’ variable internships. Four undergraduate students conducted research under the supervision of one faculty member around the theme of climate change and public health. The students presented their results to the City of Rochester at the end of the summer. This program is supported financially by the Dean of the College. Each year, a faculty member may apply to supervise a cohort of students in related research.
