Over the summer, our students have collaborated with distinguished clients, including Capgemini, the Climate Imaginarium, H2Global, the National Institute of Urban Affairs, the NYC Department of Health, R2 Resilience, and the Village of Nyack. Their projects address critical climate challenges and offer impactful solutions in health, the arts, policy, climate finance, and urban resilience.
