Carnegie Mellon University

SUCCEED – the Summer Center for Climate, Energy, and Environmental Decision Making – was founded in 2011 by Carnegie Mellon University’s Center for Climate and Energy Decision Making. Now supported by Engineering and Public Policy, the Scott Institute for Energy Innovation, and NSF PIRE, SUCCEED includes two programs: a free 2-day summer program for rising 10th - 12th grade students and a 2-day workshop for teachers.

Student Program

August 8th & 9th, 2024

The summer program for students complements what students learn about energy, climate change, and the environment in school. Students will work with current CMU PhD students to increase their understanding of the effect of climate change and its relationship with the energy sector.
