Sustainability Themes, such as Cities + Mobility + Built Environment, cut across all specializations—and give students and partners a chance to dig deeper in a particular area of impact and interest. Explore how our teaching, research and engagement is making an impact to tackle these global challenges.

Changing the game in urban design and transportation

More than half of the world's population currently lives in urban areas, with this percentage projected to increase dramatically in coming decades. The health of our planet and its inhabitants depends upon developing new strategies for human settlement and activity that foster sustainable outcomes. Our community responds to this challenge by working to build infrastructure to foster human connectivity. That's the SEAS approach.
