Welcome to the UM Sustainability Week's Faculty of Science and Engineering Faculty Day. Our program features lectures, workshops, and panel discussions on sustainability topics specific to the fields of science and engineering. Our expert panelists and workshop leaders include professionals from academia, industry, and NGOs who will share their knowledge and experiences on various aspects of sustainability in science and engineering. This is a great opportunity to learn about the latest developments and trends in sustainability, network with professionals in the field, and gain practical knowledge on how to promote sustainable practices within the scientific and engineering professions.
