The Laboratory
for Energy
and the Environment
(LFEE) brings
together collaborating
faculty and
staff in 14
departments
to address
the complex
interrelationships
between energy
and the environment
as well as
other global
environmental
challenges.
In carrying
out its mission,
LFEE takes
account of
the technological,
economic,
and social
aspects of
sustainable
energy development
and use and
of other environmental
challenges
to sustainable
development.
LFEE is a
focal point
for energy
and environmental
activities
throughout
MIT. Educational
and outreach
programs coordinated
by LFEE serve
MIT students
as well as
other academic
researchers,
industry professionals,
and policy-makers
worldwide.
LFEE's areas of focus are
energy supply, demand, and
use technologies; integrated
assessments of alternative
technology portfolios; improved
methods of modeling, monitoring,
and measuring impacts of human
activity on environmental
systems; and improved understanding
of the economic, political,
and institutional dimensions
of energy - and environment-related
problems and solution options.
Particular emphasis is on
forming links among technical
and economic and policy groups.
The LFEE Education Program coordinates two special UROP offerings: Campus Sustainability UROPs in conjunction with the Environmental Programs Office, and Martin Family UROPs with the sponsorship of the Martin Family Foundation. Current CS UROP opportunities are listed at http://lfee.mit.edu/metadot/index.pl?id=3958.
