Leading the way in integrated climate science, technology, engineering, and policy research
Foster an integrated space of inquiry combining climate sciences, technology, and engineering approaches
Bridge academic knowledge with practical expertise from scientists, engineers, and practitioners
Integrate social and policy research to create comprehensive climate solutions
The Department of Climate Change at IIT Hyderabad attempts to explore climate change by integrating academic knowledge with practical knowledge, bringing scientists, engineers, practitioners, and students together. The key is to foster an interdisciplinary space of inquiry that incorporates climate sciences, technology and engineering-based design approaches, as well as social and policy research.
We at IITH aim to be a leading institute in the synergy among these three key areas. This clearly highlights the need for multi-disciplinary courses. We plan to achieve this with a unique curriculum taking advantage of IITH's fractal academics programme. The curriculum involves core courses, elective courses, seminar series by experts of various disciplines, focus group discussions, field visits, and research thesis.
