Centre for Climate Science and Engineering Details
The Centre for Climate Science and Engineering (CSE) is part of the Civil Engineering department at the University of Toronto. We are a multi-disciplinary research and education centre that was established in 2019 and are supported by the Dean's Strategic Fund from the Faculty of Applied Science and Engineering. At the CSE, we focus on the intersection of climate science, engineering, and policy. We aim to reduce and mitigate the impacts of climate change through research on energy, air quality, GHG emissions, building structures, and transportation.Our vision is to generate and communicate actionable knowledge for engineering decisions and policy development under climate change.Our objectives are to produce research outputs that will provide a trans-disciplinary opportunity to address carbon accounting, greenhouse gas reduction efforts, and climate change mitigation/adaptation challenges. In addition, the multi-level educational programs of CSE will accelerate the awareness and adoption of low-carbon, climate change resilient choices in urban design. CSE will also stimulate strategic partnerships with private and public sector stakeholders
