Education

Education is a central component of CLIMATE-KIC. The societal and technological transformations required to address climate change mitigation and adaptation will not be possible without people.

Climate-KIC will drive the development and the delivery of new cutting-edge educational programmes. Our aim is to create a generation of climate change entrepreneurs who will have the multidisciplinary skills to develop economically, environmentally and socially sustainable approaches to coping with the effects of global warming. It will address the socio-economic aspects required to bring novel products to the market and to foster their deployment and spread.

Education in the KIC-climate will encompass all levels from Masters training to continuing professional development and all stages in between. Courses, developed with end users, will target innovation in climate change mitigation and adaptation for students, businesses and society at large.
