The Columbia Climate School Office of Undergraduate Programs recently hosted its third annual Alumni Career Conversations Panel, featuring three alumni from the Sustainable Development Program (SDEV). The event offered an opportunity for current Columbia students to learn about the various sectors and future career paths open to students interested in pursuing climate and sustainability-related careers. Kayran Abasali (CC’13), Annie Evangelakos (Block) (CC’19) and Anthony Perez (CC’21) shared their diverse experiences during and after the program, including work spanning both the public and private sectors.
The panel was moderated by Jason Smerdon, professor of climate, co-director of the Climate School’s M.S. in Climate and previous co-director of the Undergraduate Program in Sustainable Development at Columbia.
