Meet faculty, students, alumni to learn about our approach to science and math courses and how STEM can help shape your personal, professional and activist work. We will discuss career trajectories via three student presentations:

Marikit Mayeno will share her experiences as an arts and education intern at Biobus; Makaleh Smith will showcase her botany & climate research at Harvard; and Wes Thomason will share his research on Urban Resilience with the Urban Systems Lab. We will also discuss the Interdisciplinary Science Statement to get started on your own amazing trajectory!

We are on Native Land. We uplift the health of the land and her people by centering Indigenous sovereignty and First Nations rights. This North East bioregion, so called New York State, is home to many neighboring Native nations. Today we will focus on Haudenosaunee liberation and struggle. As Indigenous people and allies, we fight to ensure a beautiful thriving future for the next seven generations. We can restore and uphold the most thorough care for the ground we stand on.

Is higher education preparing students for the world that we are living in and the one that is to come? Join in on this discussion between educators about knowledge, curriculum, pedagogy and who gets to shape those concepts. This event hopes to spark a discussion around how to frame the climate crisis in education, systemic change and community production of knowledge. The panel will be moderated by 2020 Aronson Fellow Daniela Lam and feature faculty from Parsons and Milano representing different fields of study.

Please join the Interdisciplinary Science Information Session to learn about our course offerings, our approach to science and math, and how science, in concert with other disciplinary perspectives, can help shape your personal, professional, and activist work.

Join us via Zoom for a showcase of graduate research in the field of environmental policy and sustainability management! The event will consist of the following presentations:

• Charles Cochran - "Steadfast and Ready"- Indigenous Land Reparations and Agroecology in Berkshire County
• Magdalen Folkman - Mutuality in mutual aid: can mutual aid efforts be effective in communities of transition?
• Jocelyn Germany - Black in Nature: A case study of Black Students in EPSM at the New School.
• Jonathan Kovacs - Mapping Disaster Risk: A Spatial Analysis of New York City's Social Vulnerability. Client: The Climate Museum
• Dawa Sherpa - The Role of Carbon Markets and Financial Institutions in Framing Hydropower Dams as a Sustainable Solution in the Hindu-Kush-Himalaya (HKH) Region

Join Merlin Sheldrake, author of 'Enchanted Life' for an hour of conversation and Q & A about the secret and exuberant lives of fungi. Along with Sustainable Systems faculty member, Oliver Kellhammer and course coordinator Arta Yazdanseta, we will explore the amazing potential of fungal mycelium as both an inspiration and a working material for sustainable, regenerative and resilient design. We'll start out with a short presentation by Merlin, and a brief follow-up by Oliver detailing some of the mycelium work being done at Parsons followed by a panel discussion and then open it up to Q&A from students and faculty during the second half.
