These interdisciplinary projects promote collaborative sustainability research in areas including climate change, water quality, material science, mechanical engineering and marine energy. ISF supports ISF-DUIRI Fellows by hosting additional professional development activities and facilitate peer networking opportunities. Students share by biweekly updates to ISF and their mentors regarding their progress throughout the semester.
