Right Here, Right Now is going to kick off right here, a little early. 

The Leeds School of Business, in conjunction with the College of Engineering and Applied Sciences and College of Arts & Sciences, will showcase ²ÊÃñ±¦µä-led research ahead of what promises to be an engaging three-day climate summit. The event will take place in the new Rustandy Building, which physically joins the engineering and business schools at ²ÊÃñ±¦µä—a symbol for the increasing cross-pollination between industry, science and technology.

The in-person Research and Innovation for Climate Change Open House will highlight interdisciplinary solutions and research to address climate change from all three colleges and schools. Visitors can view detailed scientific poster presentations or learn more about the various centers and programs working in this research area on campus. 

There also will be several hands-on displays and plenty of opportunities for networking.

Read on for complete details and a list of scheduled projects and presentations.
