Seeking Climate Program Manager
The newly created Office of Climate and Sustainability seeks a climate program manager to accelerate Duke's commitment to integrate climate and sustainability into the university’s education, research, operations and public service missions.
The Duke Climate Commitment is a university-wide, impact-oriented initiative to address the climate crisis by creating sustainable and equitable solutions that place society on the path toward a resilient, flourishing, carbon-neutral world. Through education, research, external engagement and campus operations, the Duke Climate Commitment seeks to imagine, design and implement a sustainable future for all.
Duke Climate Commitment Student Town Hall
Join members of the newly created Office of Climate and Sustainability and other key campus partners on Oct. 10 from 5:30 to 7 p.m. EDT for a Zoom conversation about Duke’s Climate Commitment — one year after the announcement of the initiative. All Duke undergraduate and graduate/professional students are welcome; pre-registration is required. This semesterly update on the state of work in support of the Climate Commitment is an opportunity for students to participate in a Q&A session and provide feedback.
Subscribe to the Duke Climate Commitment Newsletter
The commitment builds on Duke’s longstanding leadership in climate, energy and sustainability to educate a new generation of climate-fluent innovators and create equitable solutions for all. Current Duke-affiliated students, staff- and faculty can subscribe to the official Duke Climate Commitment biweekly newsletter.
