Sustainable Cities
The School of History and Sociology's "Sustainable Cities Past and Present" study abroad programs feature an in-depth look at cities related to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals provide an organizing framework for organizations and governments around the world to track progress on such work. And at Georgia Tech, President Ángel Cabrera made them a central part of Georgia Tech’s defining purpose: to develop leaders who advance technology and improve the human condition.
