How can students from diverse sectors apply their skills to create a more resilient world in the face of climate change? Our panelists approached sustainability as scientists, mathematicians, regional planners, and product designers; addressing ecological management, sustainable household products development, sea turtle nest protection, community flood resiliency, and adaptive structural design. Our experiences demonstrate how interdisciplinary collaboration is essential to adapt to our changing world and tackle challenges facing our communities.
