Office of Research

The Climate School’s Office of Research nurtures Columbia’s community of established and future environmental leaders, through proposal development, programmatic engagement, and compliance support. We facilitate basic and translational research to forge a more sustainable, prosperous, and inclusive future for all.

We are happy to meet with researchers to discuss proposal support or other types of pre-award questions. Contact us to schedule a consultation.

Members of the press media are invited to visit the Climate School’s News Room.
