“Promoting German & European Studies in North America,” a collaboration with the Center for German & European Studies, is hosting a renewable energy policy workshop to bring together social scientists, humanities scholars, technologists and policy-makers to extend the dialogue on Germany’s energy policy and its possible lessons for the United States. It also is helping coordinate Sustainability Across the Disciplines, a set of three courses across different colleges, aligning meeting schedules to allow students to have direct contact with each other and to learn together.
