Our Mission
VSEC advances rigorous, high-level research, educational opportunities, and entrepreneurship—often in partnership with communities, government agencies, industry, national laboratories, and other research institutions—around sustainability, energy and climate. The center also serves as a global hub to engage Vanderbilt University’s world-class expertise in engineering, science, law, policy and education to investigate areas such as Energy Integration, Resource Sustainability, Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation, and Systems Risk, Reliability, and Resilience.
