1,000 Day Plan

Resilient Habitats and Communities

This initiative focuses on developing sustainable, adaptable, and disaster-resistant environments and communities. In collaboration with the Schools of Architecture and Business, this effort will continue to grow the science and engineering fields necessary to better understand climate change and sustainability issues, create smart infrastructure, renewable energy systems, advanced materials, and pollution mitigation platforms. This initiative emphasizes psychological, organizational, and design factors that foster resilience, contributing to the longevity and safety of our communities amid climate change and rapid urbanization.
