<strong>2023</strong> Summer of Learning<br />
In summer <strong>2023</strong>, 105 Princeton students from 23 academic<br />
departments worked with University faculty, researchers<br />
from other scientific enterprises, government agencies and<br />
not-for-profit organizations on projects focused on pressing<br />
environmental challenges.<br />
Students engaged in research, public outreach, policy<br />
analysis, communications and other practical work<br />
assignments that contributed meaningfully to research and<br />
solutions in the areas of biodiversity and conservation,<br />
alternative energy, climate change, environmental policy,<br />
water, agriculture and human health. Several students<br />
contributed to the development of new technologies, while<br />
others participated in projects aimed at urban sustainability<br />
and resilience, global climate policy and environmental<br />
justice.<br />
This booklet provides an overview of student experiences<br />
during the <strong>2023</strong> environmental internship program. The<br />
diversity of students’ backgrounds, talents, interests and<br />
contributions is captured in the descriptions of their<br />
individual projects. For many, their internship will serve as<br />
the foundation for continuing research and academic study.<br />
