Fall 2019 Kick Off with Community Partners

Our Fall 2019 Sustainable Cities officially kicked off today with our first Meet and Greet with Community Partners.

Sustainable Cities is a service-learning course offered through the Program on Urban Studies and Earth Systems Program. In this intensive seminar, we collaborate with Bay Area government agencies and non-profit organizations to support their efforts in creating sustainable and equitable cities. Now in its eleventh year, the class is open to undergraduate and graduate students from all disciplines.
