Summer Of Learning Symposium - 2019 Program
Summer of Learning Symposium Princeton Environmental Institute (PEI) is pleased to welcome you to the 12 th annual Summer of Learning Symposium, the culminating event for students who have participated in PEI’s Internship Program. PEI’s Internship Program offers a unique opportunity for students to complement their academic interests and is designed to enrich students’ perspectives and prepare them as leaders through hands-on experiences. At the Summer of Learning Symposium, we celebrate the work and research of 114 undergraduate students from 21 academic departments who were based in lab and field locations throughout the United States and in 14 foreign nations during summer 2019. The students’ assignments focused on scientific, technical, policy and human dimensions of global environmental challenges. Our 2019 interns contributed to faculty-led research and worked alongside experts from NGOs, government agencies, industries, community-service enterprises and other academic institutions worldwide. Through these placements, students sought solutions to various environmental challenges. The Summer of Learning Symposium is an opportunity to celebrate students’ contributions, exchange perspectives, develop a shared mission, and consider practical, achievable solutions to the world’s most pressing environmental challenges. We extend our congratulations to the students and our appreciation to those faculty, colleagues, friends and community partners who made this year’s internship program and the Summer of Learning Symposium possible.
