Striving for SustainabilityAs Lehigh unfolds its bold, new sustainability plan, we highlight six alumni who are doing their part for a more sustainable planet.
Can we save our dying oceans?Oceans define our home planet, covering more than 70 percent of the Earth’s surface and driving the weather and climatic patterns that are essential to life. Maintaining the economic and life-support value of the ocean relies on preserving the well-being of its ecosystems.
Can artificial intelligence lead to a more humane society?In my view, our society is increasingly moving toward a world in which humans and machines become integral parts of critical systems. The boundary between human work and machine work is becoming ever more blurred, as well as the boundary between decisions made by humans and decisions made by artificial intelligence.
Are entrepreneurs born or made?Would Michael Phelps have won 23 Olympic gold medals if he had never had access to a pool? While he may have been born with genetics that supported athleticism and a competitive spirit, would he have won more medals than any other athlete without awareness, opportunity, training, coaching and conditioning? At Lehigh’s Baker Institute for Entrepreneurship, Creativity and Innovation, we provide just that: awareness, opportunity, training, coaching and conditioning.
