*2012 Workshops for Sustainability and Climate*
The topics of sustainability and climate change offer important
opportunities to engage students in science that is multidisciplinary,
complex and societally relevant. Thus, we are pleased to announce a
suite of workshops for college faculty addressing various aspects of
sustainability and climate science in higher education. Note that many
of these workshops have application deadlines in early March.
Two workshops from the InTeGrate project will address sustainability at
two different scales: first at the level of departments, programs and
degree pathways, and secondly in the design of individual courses. These
workshops are designed to foster an integration of geoscience and other
disciplines in the teaching of sustainability.
*Programs that Bring Together Geoscience and Sustainability - May 23-25,
2012, Stanford University, Palo Alto, CA
