- Learn to make valid assessments and informed contributions based on personal views and opinions backed by financial metrics.
- Prepare and deliver presentations, reports, case studies on projects detailing the financial impact of a sustainability project.
“Through this collaboration, more than 20 students will learn to use the new tools and develop case studies for the local government partners. By conducting resilience technical-economic assessments for solar plus storage, the students will develop cutting-edge job skills, which are high value,” Said Dean Govindan Parayil. “Patel College is delighted to be a partner in the Clear Sky project.”
