Exploring Public Health, Environmental Conservation, and Cultural Preservation

Exploring Public Health, Environmental Conservation, and Cultural Preservation Through Experiential Learning In this panel, students will present their PLP projects across a variety of disciplines and share what they have learned through research, artistic endeavors, and internships. The six projects explore diverse topics but all address one of two themes: 1.) Using science to advance public health and environmental conservation; 2.) Preserving, analyzing, and sharing history and culture. The Passionate Leaders Project (PLP) supports undergraduate students seeking to enrich their academic and professional interests by funding learning opportunities beyond the boundaries of the traditional classroom. Students may request up to $4,000 through the PLP to fund a variety of activities, including, but not limited to: global experiences, research, internships, service projects, and creative endeavors.
