Education and Outreach

Education and outreach in the energy transition space are vital to the University of Chicago’s mission of advancing knowledge and driving impactful change. As the world faces the urgent challenges of climate change, UChicago recognizes that a well-informed public and future leaders are essential to achieving a sustainable, low-carbon future. Through interdisciplinary programs, the university fosters deep understanding among students, researchers, and the broader community about the complexities of energy systems, policy, and innovation. Outreach initiatives, such as public lectures, collaborative workshops, and partnerships with local and global organizations, serve to bridge the gap between cutting-edge research and practical, real-world applications. By promoting awareness, enhancing engagement, and equipping stakeholders with the knowledge and tools needed to accelerate the energy transition, UChicago helps to cultivate a more sustainable society.
