Description

Are you ready to be the hero of your own sustainability story? No matter what your background or interests, you have a role to play in creating a better future! This isn’t just a summer camp—it’s your chance to step into the role of sustainability innovator, urban planner, and problem-solver. Work alongside NIU faculty, local experts, industry partners, and your peers to explore real-world issues like climate change, water systems, green infrastructure, and smart cities. Dive into hands-on projects that challenge you to design a sustainable community—from clean energy and waste management to inclusive spaces and smart transportation. Think of it as a real-world design challenge, where your ideas could shape the cities of tomorrow. Whether you’re into science, art, engineering, or you just want to make a difference, this is your moment to create, collaborate, and lead.
