Education Events
Molecular Simulations and Machine Learning for Computational Design of Materials with Fast Oxygen Kinetics
Join us on September 23 at 3:30 p.m. for this Sustainable Energy Seminar presentation by Dr. Dane Morgan, Professor of Materials Science and Engineering at UW-Madison.
WEI Open House: Climate Solutions on Campus
During this event, we will work together to identify climate solutions and test their impacts on global temperature using a cutting-edge computer simulation called En-ROADS. Through evidence-based modeling and engaging conversation, we’ll create our own future climate scenario of success. Incoming students will meet current UW students who have been able to pursue their passion while working towards climate justice and learn how to get involved in sustainable actions on campus.

The Discovery Expo in the Discovery Building is a great opportunity for youth (grades K-12) to discover something new and exciting about science! Educators must apply to attend.
Latine Energy Leaders: Tackling the Climate Crisis and Environmental Injustice in Wisconsin
Environmental Justice is at the heart of addressing the climate crisis. In Wisconsin, Latine communities are often at the brunt of environmental impact. They face disproportionate effects from energy burden, health issues, and environmental racism. Despite these challenges, Latine leaders pave the way for equitable climate solutions.
