Smart & Green: Leveraging AI to Empower Students as Change Agents for Sustainable Universities

Open for application

Our challenge

As the world grapples with urgent environmental challenges, the campus emerges as a powerful hub for innovation and sustainability, offering students the opportunity to lead transformative change, shaping sustainable practices that will resonate far beyond the university and into the future. Utilizing challenge-based learning (CBL) as an innovative approach, we emphasize interdisciplinary collaboration, merging insights from diverse fields to address real-world sustainability challenges. Participants will engage in problem-solving activities, working in teams to leverage artificial intelligence (AI) as a powerful tool for developing sustainable services that support the green transition on campus. By fostering critical thinking, creativity, and collaboration, this challenge prepares students to become proactive, informed agents of change in the pursuit of a more sustainable future.
